Agent: Willie Colon injury 'a nine-month rehab'

Jun 29, 2010

Pittsburgh Steelers starting right tackle Willie Colon's worst fears were confirmed Tuesday when medical tests revealed he has a ruptured right Achilles tendon. The injury will knock Colon out for the entire 2010 season.

"It's torn, and he's getting surgery [Wednesday] morning with [team physician] Dr. James Bradley," Colon's agent, Joe Linta, said. "He's expected to have a full recovery, and it's about a nine-month rehab."

The #Jaguars are planning to sign QB-turned-TE Tim Tebow to a 1-year deal, per me and @TomPelissero, a deal that could be official in the next week or so. Nothing done yet. But he’ll have a chance to make the team to reunite with his mentor and college head coach Urban Meyer.

Fantasy Impact:

Tim Tebow hasn't played in a regular-season game in nine seasons and will be changing positions from QB to TE in 2021. If Tebow does make the final roster, there is little competition at the TE position in Jacksonville.
