Jordan Hicks knew what happened before the doctors told him. He dropped to the ground on the second play of an Oct. 23, 2017 game against Washington, already realizing the sharp pain in his heel meant the Achilles tendon in his right leg had ruptured.
Tuesday marks the one-year anniversary of the injury, which occurred in Week 7. Hicks hasn't planned a celebration.
