Yes, Sam Pittman has a torn bicep after lifting up his dog for a stunt.
Pittman tore his bicep lifting up his bulldog, Lucy, filming one of his “Yessir” videos, which is one of the more interesting injury stories I’ve ever heard

It’s been a bad few days for college football coaches when it comes to getting hurt. Gus Malzahn fractured his tibia and Pittman has a torn bicep.
Not a great run for people running major college football teams when it comes to staying healthy.

I have no idea how you even heal a torn bicep. While I might look super athletic these days, I can’t say I’ve ever done enough training where a torn bicep was a real concern.
Then again, not really sure I even knew you could hurt yourself in this fashion picking up a dog.
Hopefully, Pittman bounces back and returns to 100% ASAP.
