Yahoo Sports NFL on Brock Bowers
From the article
I get the feeling that Bowers re-injured his knee either during or shortly after the first preseason game...Even if it was a minor surgery, I don't buy that someone can have their knee cut open and operated on and be ready to play in an NFL game 12 or 19 days later.
STACKED’s take
Bowers likely re-injured same knee in early preseason; timeline for return unclear despite team's optimistic messaging.
Bowers re-injured his knee either during or shortly after the first preseason game against Arizona on Aug. 13, where he played just one snap despite the rest of the starting offense getting a full 10-play drive. Videos on social media surfaced four days later showing him being ginger with the knee. The source speculates the meniscus procedure likely happened shortly after the 49ers preseason game rather than the Tuesday before the season opener, which would align with the team's "a game or two" miss timeline. However, the source expresses skepticism about the timeline, noting it's difficult to believe someone can have knee surgery and be ready to play in an NFL game 12-19 days later, especially given this is the same knee injured last year.
