It could be that a sprained ankle caused by a 300 pound rolling or falling body might be a bit more severe than Joe accidentally stepping off the edge of his driveway.

Should have IR'd him (to return) and used his roster spot. Anyone know how that works? If we IR him now will the prior 2 weeks count?
How did the medical staff not diagnose his injury correctly? Please provide the medical report you must be privy to make such a statement. I have never seen one doctor speak about the injury. I have seen Price speak and say it was nothing and he would be back in a week, then an over zealous Price assured he would be back by the Steeler's game. Never a doctor. My experience when injured, not only will the doctor never say when it will be 100% healed, neither would any trainers/therapists working with me.
