WEBVTT - Latest Update on Brock Purdy's Surgery | 1st & 10

0:00:14.120 --> 0:00:16.880
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to the first and ten podcast. Today, we

0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:20.759
<v Speaker 1>have breaking news that quarterback Brock Purtty has undergone surgery

0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:23.720
<v Speaker 1>on his right elbow. Lindsay, what have we heard from

0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:26.640
<v Speaker 1>the doctors on the surgery, Heybrey. Yeah, it's a pretty

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:30.320
<v Speaker 1>short and sweet release from the team. But forty nine

0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Ers quarterback Brock pretty was able to have the repair

0:00:34.479 --> 0:00:38.159
<v Speaker 1>procedure on his right elbow that was delayed earlier in

0:00:38.200 --> 0:00:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the off season. Doctor Keith Meister was the surgeon performing

0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:47.000
<v Speaker 1>the repair surgery, and from what we know, they were

0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:50.599
<v Speaker 1>able to go the route of the internal brace repair

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 1>for his elbow and he is anticipated to be able

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:58.240
<v Speaker 1>to start a progressive throwing program in about three months.

0:00:58.600 --> 0:01:02.760
<v Speaker 1>This was kind of the ideal best case scenario that

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.400
<v Speaker 1>both Brock Purty and the team were hoping to have,

0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:08.760
<v Speaker 1>rather than the full Tommy John surgery and a few

0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 1>other alternate procedures that were on the table in terms

0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:15.480
<v Speaker 1>of repair for his right elbow. I'm so glad to

0:01:15.520 --> 0:01:18.840
<v Speaker 1>hear that the surgery was a success. Since Brock suffered

0:01:18.840 --> 0:01:22.520
<v Speaker 1>the injury in the NFC Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles,

0:01:22.920 --> 0:01:25.880
<v Speaker 1>the timeline was moved around a bit. He was originally

0:01:25.920 --> 0:01:28.880
<v Speaker 1>scheduled to have the surgery a few weeks ago. Can

0:01:28.920 --> 0:01:32.400
<v Speaker 1>you explain why it was moved back. Yeah, we actually

0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 1>got the official update of the surgery delay at the

0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Combine during General Manager John Lynch's press availability. Essentially, when

0:01:41.640 --> 0:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>doctor Keith Meister went in to look at the final

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 1>evaluation before moving forward or not moving forward, there was

0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:53.200
<v Speaker 1>some swelling and inflammation in Brock's arm that he really

0:01:53.200 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 1>wanted to let go down and kind of let it

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 1>be an ideal situation for surgery. From what John Lynch meant,

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 1>shinned doctor Keith Meister, this is his area of expertise,

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:07.080
<v Speaker 1>and I did hear him say that he has had

0:02:07.120 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 1>the most successful cases when the swelling and inflammation in

0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>the arm is more minimal. So I think that's what

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.680
<v Speaker 1>they were waiting for. And we are very happy to

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:18.959
<v Speaker 1>hear that the surgery was successful and now Brock Purty

0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>can finally move on to what he's been hoping for.

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:27.079
<v Speaker 1>Was just finally entering the healing and rehab process. And

0:02:27.160 --> 0:02:31.559
<v Speaker 1>you know that three month throwing program timeline is very encouraging.

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:34.079
<v Speaker 1>And then you know, we'll probably get a later update

0:02:34.120 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 1>to hear what the full recovery timeline will be great

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:40.839
<v Speaker 1>news that the doctors did not find any further unexpected

0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 1>damage to his elbow, a scenario in that case could

0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:47.480
<v Speaker 1>have pushed the recovery timeline a bit further. Also, like

0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:50.440
<v Speaker 1>he said, no Tommy John surgery was needed. It was

0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:53.960
<v Speaker 1>only a UCL repair. They placed an internal brace in

0:02:53.960 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 1>the surgery. With that being said, how does his recovery

0:02:57.880 --> 0:03:00.360
<v Speaker 1>and the goal for in three months to start throwing

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 1>program line up with the start of the twenty twenty

0:03:03.160 --> 0:03:07.520
<v Speaker 1>three regular season. Yeah, so the three month throwing program

0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 1>will put him at starting to actually get to throw

0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 1>around the ball in early June. That's kind of I believe.

0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:19.799
<v Speaker 1>The tail end of OTAs and then the total timeline

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:23.920
<v Speaker 1>as projected, and again so many things can change, is

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:27.160
<v Speaker 1>six months to full recovery, and that would pretty much

0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:30.240
<v Speaker 1>line up with the start of the twenty twenty three

0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:34.240
<v Speaker 1>regular season. We'll see once he gets into that throwing

0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:38.400
<v Speaker 1>program what exactly he can or cannot participate in in

0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:40.760
<v Speaker 1>terms of training camp. I think it's very much going

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:44.080
<v Speaker 1>to see how it goes and see how he progresses

0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:48.920
<v Speaker 1>type thing. But right now, the full recovery projected timeline

0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:52.200
<v Speaker 1>six months and then three months for the start of

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:56.160
<v Speaker 1>that throwing program. All good news. I know that again,

0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 1>this was kind of the ideal, best case scenario for

0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>the San Francis before forty nine ers and for brock Berty.

0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:04.240
