Latimer undergoes Platelet-rich Plasma procedure on ailing knee
/
Further, per Klis, Latimer had a Platelet-rich Plasma procedure over the team's bye week. PRP entails drawing and spinning blood, then re-injecting the plasma, platelets and red and white blood cells into damaged tissue.
The procedure is commonly used for NBA and MLB athletes, though Falcons defender Adrian Clayborn had it done last December. Former Colts and Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning also turned to PRP to enhance his once-career-threatening neck injury.
