Dallas Cowboys center out neurological issue

Post by farmer »

Dallas Cowboy center Travis Frederick is out for unknown length of time. Travis says he has been diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder that causes weakness in various parts of the body and isn't sure on a timetable for his return.

Frederick said in a statement issued by the team Wednesday that he has received two treatments for Guillain-Barre Syndrome over the past 48 hours and that the treatments will continue for several days. According to the National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke , Guillain-Barre causes the body to attack a network of nerves around the brain and spinal cord.

Reports out that Fredrick could be out just weeks not months. No timetable giving though.

Sure could have used him today. Prescott needs help to win games. Not a QB for players to know he will make plays. As Dez said they would have won if he was playing. Dallas and drama. Just hope Fredrick can enjoy life with or without football
