      I’ve had an ACL tear, which left me with three screws in my knee after surgery. I was definitely not painless when it happened, it sent Shockwave of pain through my body.

      Yes. Kevin Durant tore his Achilles and didn’t even realize it until he finished sprinting down the court. Rodgers didn’t seem to realize it until he tried to stand up. Probably has to do with adrenaline but lots of athletes seem to tear it and not realizes right away, whereas an ACL or hamstring people seem to notice immediately.
