Twitter voices support for Falcons DT Grady Jarrett after season-ending injury
Grady Jarrett has been the mainstay on the defense for the Atlanta Falcons. He has remained loyal to the team that drafted him despite having to go through some really tough times. Things were finally looking promising this season for his team but now his team will have to carry on without him.
Grady sustained a torn ACL on Sunday which will keep him out for the remainder of the year. This is devastating news and Twitter understands that as they voice their support for the Pro Bowl defensive tackle.
Twitter responds to devastating news of Grady Jarrett's season-ending torn ACL
There are those certain players that you just can hardly stand to see get injured. Grady Jarrett going down with a season-ending injury seems like the most disheartening injury the Atlanta Falcons have had since Keanu Neal went down with a season-ending injury in a second-consecutive year.
Jarrett has been the key piece for the defense for many years. The former fifth-round pick has battled his way to becoming the face of the defense and it makes it that much more difficult to see the loyal Grady Jarrett sustain an injury like this.
Twitter sees that as many people have voiced their support for the Pro Bowler.
Arthur Smith confirms Grady Jarrett is out for the year.

The Falcons lost more than a game on Sunday. Per @AdamSchefter, Grady Jarrett is out for the season with a torn ACL, a crushing injury for one of Atlanta's best and most consistent defenders https://t.co/tN0yJGogPQ

Former Falcons QB and current employee sums it up perfectly. Grady is everything this defense wants to be.
Man it kills me to hear that @GradyJarrett is out for the year. The man embodies work ethic and relentless effort. It will be difficult without Big Grady but this defense must surge forward. That’s what #97 demands. “You Shall Not Pass”, you will be back Big Man! pic.twitter.com/7AUGS8qrll

Grady Jarrett suffering a torn ACL is one of the most devastating losses the Falcons have had in a long time. Heart and soul of the franchise. Always comes ready to play. Finally had support around him after having to do it all for the last several seasons. This hurts so much.

We all know that Grady will be back and better than every for the start of the 2024 season.
I know and love @GradyJarrett. An incredible man, leader and inspiration to everyone in our building. He's a warrior through and through ... watch him come back better than ever. For damn sure, he'll attack his recovery like he does everything else - relentlessly. 🙏

One thing all Falcons fans can agree on is that we all love Grady Jarrett. The fact that he tore his ACL is just heart-crushing. I hope he has a speedy recovery. Get well soon @GradyJarrett!!! #DirtyBirds

The Atlanta Falcons will also host a Minnesota Vikings team on Sunday who also received a gut punch during their week eight game. Their starting QB Kirk Cousins, who has been on fire this season, will miss the remainder of the year with a torn Achilles.
Kirk Cousins on one side, Grady Jarrett on the other…

Heartbeat of the Vikings offense and the soul of the Falcons defense both gone for the season…
What a way to start the week 😒
Grady's season-ending injury really was one of the most quiet injuries we have ever seen.
Grady Jarrett is so tough, he tore his ACL yesterday and you'd have never even known that it happened. He didn't even stay down to be treated on the field, and he walked to the locker room after.

Guy is the heartbeat of what the team wants to be about.
Just to end this, this really is the last player you wanted to see get injured. He has done nothing but work for this franchise despite seeing very little success outside of the two postseason runs in 2016 and 2017. He will certainly work to get himself back for the start of the 2024 NFL Season.
