2020 has caught up to Drake.

As per an Instagram Story, which he shared on Friday (October 30), the Canadian titan unveiled a photo of himself in bed with a knee brace on his right leg. "New challenged unlocked," he captioned the photo. Shortly after, Drizzy deleted the post, only to repost the image with an inspirational caption. "I actually want to use this post to send love and motivation to anybody else that 2020 let loose on," he wrote, adding, "Start writing the best bounce back story NOW." No word on what happened to his leg, but many have suspected that the star tore his ACL and had to undergo knee surgery.

News of Drizzy's injury comes days after he announced that his upcoming album, Certified Lover Boy, has been pushed back to January 2021. The set, which follows his 2020 mixtape, Dark Lane Demo Tapes, was originally scheduled to drop over the summer. In conjunction with the project, the rapper also announced a Nike capsule collection, which includes bomber jackets, hoodies and t-shirts with the "CLB" logo. Click here to see the full collection!
