These injury reports never get any easier, especially when the guy we are reporting on has had three torn ACL’s in his knees in just the last three years and is as likable as Dean Wilson is. Yep, the #15 Rockstar Energy / Husqvarna rider is sidelined with a torn ACL in his knee, again.
“Unfortunate news from yesterday while testing for outdoors at Glen Helen on a crowded track,” Deano said from his @DeanWilson15 Instagram account. “I was passing a slower rider and he moved over mid air on me and I got cross jumped. I hit his rear wheel and put my leg out and my foot stomped the ground really hard to prevent me falling. As I did, I heard my knee pop. After MRI results, I have torn my ACL and will require surgery. I can’t believe this. Just as I was feeling good for outdoors and ready for a fresh start with the outdoor season and something completely out of my control like this happens. I’m Completely gutted. I’ll do everything in my power to come back from this even stronger, whether I remain where I’m at or do it on my own. I know what I’m capable of. Thanks everyone for the support.”
When injuries pile on like they have for Deano, each one is harder and harder to come back from. We wish Deano a quick recovery and hope he doesn’t let this one mess with his head too much.
