49ers DE Dee Ford Underwent “Extensive” Knee Surgery After Super Bowl LIV

Via ESPN: 

“We were spot-on with the injury as far as diagnosing it in training camp,” Ford said. “I had a severe case of tendinitis. … With my position, that’s a blown tire. I feel great right now. I’m able to actually explode off of this knee. Thinking back on it, I can’t believe I played a whole season on it, and we knew at the end of the day what we had to do. It had to be surgical, but I didn’t want to miss the season. We had too much going on. I didn’t want to miss that. It’s in the bag now, though, I’m confident in that.”

A Super Bowl loss and a knee surgery.  Talk about a rough offseason.
