Leinart's brace?

[bigredjane]

I'm very curious, why does Matt wear that large black brace on his left leg when he plays? Has he had knee surgery or what? I haven't seen him play without it.

He doesn't have an ACL in his left knee. It's a rare condition that affects one out of every 20,000 people. The knee brace was specially designed by world famous Dr. Marvin Monroe and enables Matt to live an almost entirely normal life.
