what happened to sterling k brown's leg

Sterling K. Brown tore his left Achilles tendon while doing something athletic, a non-dangerous activity, where he felt a sudden sharp pain as if someone stomped on the back of his heel. Despite the injury, he chose to postpone surgery so he could attend and present at the 2025 Emmy Awards, using a knee scooter to get around during the event. Brown described the injury as unfortunate and mentioned that recovery would take some time. He recounted that initially, he thought someone stepped on his foot, but later realized it was an Achilles rupture requiring surgery after the Emmys. He has had ACL injuries before, so he understands the rehab process ahead.
