WitP: McBriar Has Knee Surgery

Todd Archer of the Dallas Morning News writes that punter Mat McBriar underwent arthroscopic knee surgery today.

Punter Mat McBriar had perhaps his finest season and he was doing so with a hurt right knee that required arthroscopic surgery Wednesday.

He is not expected to need a long recovery period.

Some great stats from the post:

While he did not earn a Pro Bowl bid, McBriar set a team record with 38 punts downed inside the opponents' 20, which was also third-best in the league this year and sixth in NFL history. Of his 72 punts, 38 were inside the 20 and he had only three touchbacks, while averaging 45.3 yards per punt. He had a career-high 39.9-yard net average, which would have been higher if not for a 79-yard return for a touchdown by New York's Domenik Hixon.
