Even with the NFL under total lock out, Chad Pennington still found a way to hurt himself.
The former brittle Jets quarterback tore his ACL while playing a pick-up basketball game in Miami. He is to undergo surgery this week to repair the tore ligament.
For Pennington it's just one in a long line of health related issues. From tore shoulders, broken wrists, another broken shoulder, followed by another broken shoulder, Pennington could never stay on the field.
While a Jet, he spent more time waving a towel on the sidelines then actually playing football for Gang Green.
The Jets grew so tired of him, that they traded him to Miami, after the Jets acquired Brett Favre in 2008. That blew up in the Jets face, as Pennington led Miami to the AFC title in '08.
It didn't take Miami long to find a new starter in Chad Henne after Pennington suffered a season-ending injury in week three of 2009. Then in 2010, Pennington was injured again after one snap.
Some say Pennington was full of class, others would say he was just full of it, and an ultimate loser; he should stop trying to play sports and retire.
