Beltram’s injury might be career ending. Part of the cartilage in his knee is completely gone which will likely mean that he will eventualy need a knee replacement. It is a very painful injury requiring microfracture repair with no weightbearing for 6 to 8 weeks followed by months of rehab.

There is absolutely no reason to accuse him of ever milking an injury in order to receive full pay for time he didn’t need to miss.

Talk about milking the DL!! Yeah i admire the fact he got full pay without having to do squat for it!
