Dr. James Andrews Will Attempt to Fix Pennington’s Shoulder for Third Time

Chad Pennington will travel to Birmingham, Alabama on Friday to undergo shoulder surgery for the third time. Dr. James Andrews, the man most commonly associated with career-threatening arm operations, will perform the surgery. He’s done the previous two operations on Chad’s arm, as well.

The surgery will repair a torn capsule in his throwing shoulder and could end Pennington’s career.

This will be his second procedure of the week — he already had stitches in his nose from a hit he took on Sunday. One of these two operations seems slightly less serious than the other. We are not doctors, however.
