"I was working out in Miami-Dade in the middle of July. I was doing my warmup and I felt like a crazy pinch in my foot out of nowhere. It was very random. We didn't know what it was, so I got an MRI, nothing showed up on the MRI. And then foot specialist said I was born with an extra bone in the back of my foot, and it's like a very small bone."
"We did a [Platlet-Rich Plasma] shot, cortisone shot, another PRP shot. So we tried everything before surgery. Ultimately, it was two, three weeks in-between each shot - from July to now - it adds up and we got to a week ago, and I was like, 'Bro, I still feel the same pinch in my foot that I felt in July.' Ultimately, I was working out and I was trying to ramp up and be ready to go for training camp,"
Tyler Herro underwent left foot surgery earlier this month and is expected to miss roughly the next two months. The injury began in July during a warmup when he felt a sudden pinch; MRI showed nothing, and a specialist identified a small extra bone in the back of his foot. Multiple non-surgical treatments were attempted, including PRP and a cortisone shot, but pain persisted and prevented jumping. Herro is aiming to return in about six weeks, though an 8–12 week timeline is more realistic; the coach projects a return in mid to late November.
