Xavien Howard has surgery to repair meniscus tear in knee

Throughout the week Adam Gase has been asked about the status of star corner Xavien Howard and Gase has been clear that Howard has a knee issue, Howard is week to week, and Howard could return for any of the final three games. Adam Gase did not say that Howard had surgery.

This is not a doom and gloom type of thing. Howard’s knee “scope” was minor. The arthroscopic procedure was done to trim away a portion of the tear in his knee. It was a simple in and out and recovery is not considered to be long.
