Its becoming more and more apparent that the author of this is guilty of not doing much in the way of research or verifying the source.  Got the information from an "intern" who immediately recanted.  And apparently the drug in question wouldn't help his injury very much.

"Why would he use HGH for that?"

Mendias' opinion matters. He has been studying growth hormone for a decade at the University of Michigan, where he's an assistant professor of orthopedic surgery. He is also leading a project funded by Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban to learn how HGH can help recovery from ACL tears.

Manning's injury was far from an ACL injury; it was a herniated disc affecting the nerve in his neck. And that made Mendias curious when he saw the report.

"Even if he did use it," Mendias says, "it wouldn't make sense for the injury he had. For having a bulging disc, I don't think he'd benefit."

When I saw the source of the report, I had my doubts about the accuracy of the report, and it appears those doubts were correct.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
