From Adam Shefter, the God of Twitter: Anthony Gonzalez does indeed go under the knife, and more Colts news
Stampede Blue — Adam Shefter is indeed the god of NFL Twitter updates: Shefter's report backs up the story from Yahoo! Sports yesterday. The positive out of all this is Gonzo's season is not over. They discovered loose particles in his knee, and they are getting them cleaned out. With Pierre Garçon and Austin Collie playing well, I have no problem with Gonzo chilling out until December. The distressing thing is that Bob Sanders is (sigh) once again friggin hurt. This time, it's an elbow and it's serious. Players do not go to ...
