Since tearing his Achilles tendon, Jayson Tatum had remained silent about his rehabilitation and recovery. Until today.
In an NBA video, the Boston Celtics All-Star shared updates and didn’t sugarcoat his situation.
Jayson Tatum crossover with the NFL as a surprising guest in Patriots and Commanders joint practice
The truth about Tatum’s rehabilitation
This injury ended his season during Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals against the New York Knicks. However, since then, the 27-year-old has been working to return to the court and “get back to who he was.”
On June 27, Jayson shared a tweet about his recovery, albeit one filled with discouragement and little hope: “Day 45… this is some bullsh*t,” he wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
In a new and surprising video shared by the NBA’s official X account, Tatum described the process as “tedious,” revealing that he has rehabilitation sessions six days a week, that he has been training in the gym and in the pool, and shared a detail that left his fans amazed: he no longer wears a boot.
“The first six weeks of this were probably the toughest six weeks of my life,” he revealed with brutal honesty.
Since his injury and as the days passed, the Celtics star confessed that he had to be resilient and hold on to the idea that “better days would come“:
“Just have to accept it and realize it happened. And now I have to do everything in my power to get back to who I was and get back to playing,” he said hopefully.
In the post, fans left messages of support for JT: “Nice words from Jayson. There are Better days ahead indeed” commented one user. “wishing you a speedy recovery!” shared another fan. “He will be the first player to win mvp post achilles” predicted another.
Just a couple of months after his injury, his progress is growing by leaps and bounds and, of course, generating expectations among his fans. Although his schedule and return date have not been revealed and there is no exact date, Tatum could have his place on the team before the end of the 2025-26 season.
However, in the midst of a season of readjustment, with figures such as Luke Kornet, Jrue Holiday, and Kristaps Porzingis out of the team, it is unlikely that the Boston will rush his return, nor would it be advisable. In fact, Celtics team president, Rich Gotham, has maintained that there is no deadline for the NBA star’s return.
In the meantime, all that remains is to wait, although one thing is certain: JT will continue to work hard to return to the court as soon as possible.

Lions, despite coaching departures, determined to finish what they’ve started
<!--> [--> Carmen Vitali NFL Reporter <!--> --> The Detroit Lions aren’t taking the step back most think they are.

2025 NFL Preview: San Francisco 49ers
Head Coach: Kyle Shanahan (ninth season) PFF projected win total: 10.0 2024 Record: 6-11 (fourth in NFC West) Biggest Strength: Offensive Star Power When healthy — a big caveat of late — the 49ers have as much offensive firepower as any NFL team. Brock Purdy is an above-average starting quarterback. Christian McCaffrey was the best running back in the NFL in 2023. Brandon Aiyuk, Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall comprise a solid group of young wide receivers. George Kittle is the best tight end in the NFL, and the offensive line is a solid unit headlined by Trent Williams and Dominick Puni. If McCaffrey, Aiyuk and Williams, in particular, are healthy, the 49ers still have a dangerous offensive unit. Biggest Weakness: Defensive Line Beyond Nick Bosa, San Francisco lacks proven defensive line depth. The front office drafted three such players […]
