Thankfully it was only a minor injury. There is no word yet on his ability to be ready for training camp when it opens later this week.
We don’t have any other details surrounding the shooting at this time so there is no point in speculating what the events were that led up to the shooting. What we do know is that this is the second time that Tretola has been in the news this offseason. The first was with the incident where Tajae Sharpe #allegedly beat up a guy on the first night of the NFL draft. Tretola, again #allegedly, stood watch while Sharpe beat the dude up.
Tretola might want to go ahead and have a good training camp to make sure he makes the opening day roster.
