Terrible. My all time favorite Wildcat. Hate to see him go out this way...

I wonder if he will get HOF consideration.

I hate to hear that! Might be the end of his career.
I don't think he will make it unless there is a lot of fan support. I was hoping that
between this year, and maybe next year, he would have enough yards that they couldn't
turn him down. I haven't looked at the list for a year or so.

He announced last year that he was going to retire following this season so I'd guess his career is over.
Darren looked really good against the Chiefs however, and I suppose there's always a chance

Poor guy! Both of those injuries are excruciatingly painful by themselves...but both, wow! I hope he recovers well. One of my favorite 'Cats.

For what it's worth he implies/entertains a comeback on his twitter account.

That is all Darren needs is for someone to doubt he cant do something.

Don't bet against Lil' Tank.
