During the SNF Matchup between the Miami Dolphins and the Philadelphia Eagles, WR Jaylen Waddle had to leave the game with what looked like an apparent back issue in the second quarter of the game.

He was ruled questionable to return by team officials. However, at the beginning of the third quater he was back on the field, sprinting at full speed and catching balls.

So what outerworld treatment do pro athletes receives that make them recover from such injuries?

Ice hockey and American football players are seemingly not human in regards to pain tolerance. Have known hockey players to play with broken facial bones and football players to play with broken limbs or torn ligaments.

Maybe they just cuss a lot and rub some dirt on it, then get back out there.
