Cody Parkey Shredded His Groin On Sunday and That Sounds Just Awful

Cody Parkey has been nursing a minor groin injury all season. It’s been evidenced by his failure to reach the end zone on kickoff attempts (one even rolled out-of-bounds for a penalty). People were mad about it. Kyle said he stunk was hurt. Indeed. Parkey’s been less than impressive this season. But on Sunday, physically, he actually did something quite impressive.

You see, the groin is composed of five muscles. Before Sunday’s game, Cody Parkey tore THREE OF THEM. The fact that he was still able to walk, let alone kick the ball off to almost the end zone is incredibly impressive. Parkey won’t need surgery and says he is confident he’ll be the team’s kicker next year. For now, you just have to wonder if walking around with balls that big is gonna do any extra damage.
Kyle: Yeah, I probably shouldn’t have laid into him so hard. That’s got to be just about the worst injury for a kicker short of losing a foot or something.
When he's not writing about sports here or ranting about them on Twitter, Jim is probably watching X-Files on Netflix or drinking a beer somewhere. Jim has nothing against hockey, it's just not his style. He once met Duce Staley at a Sixers game.
