I'm not going to worry until ZT says it's no big deal and/or he is day to day. Those statements are the signs he's seriously hurt.

Going back to the source, here are four comments from the CJ article:
Quote:Look this guy up. He has a very unsavory reputation as an NFL doctor and had like 20 malpractice lawsuits against him from Chargers players. Quote:The guy you apparently trust is a twitter guy now is because of several lawsuits from former Chargers (where he used to be a team doc) -- including allegations that he performed surgery while high and wrote prescriptions for known addicts, the NFLPA requesting the NFL to make a formal review of his practices, and numerous other "definitely not malpractice" incidents (including disfiguring a teenage girl). Quote:Isn't this the same doctor who got in trouble when he was with the Chargers years ago for prescribing Ambien to Junior Seau (shortly before he killed himself)? I'd take his opinion with a grain of salt. This guy doesn't have the best reputation. Quote:From an article on the Junior Seau business: Again, in the end, the guy may be correct in the diagnosis, but he's literally making said diagnosis by watching TV (they didn't even show the play he hurt himself, FFS) and has a sullied (and deserved) reputation. I would ignore this like the plague.

I just don't see it. He was walking around looking kind of pissed, but not distraught. He was working his leg against the wall as ifhe was trying to get a cramp out of his calf. He was limping, but barely. I just don't see a high ankle sprain here. If it is, it's very minor or he would not have been doing any of that, he would be on the cart and in a boot. Trayveon will most likely get the promotion and opportunity to play. The kid has always shined as a RB, he just can't seem to stay healthy. But as long as he is, he is better than anyone we could pick up. I've kind of noticed they have gone away from using Mixon as a blocker and are putting Perine in to protect Burrow more anyway, so at least that shoudln't be a problem.

My level of concern is a 6. Mixon does have injury issues and his pain tolerance is top 10 in the NFL.

Let’s consider a few medical terminology “Zac Taylor-isms” and explain their meaning. Day to day - on a ventilator High ankle sprain - compound fracture of the tibia Undergoing evaluation - either in a CT scan, undergoing an MRI, or lying in the morgue Got the wind knocked out of him - congestive heart failure Anticipating his return to the lineup - that’s the pre-op lineup Bone bruise - in a cast Working his way back - starting rehab

I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

If and that is a giant if they need to go shopping for a new RB, I'd rather them go shopping on another team's PS than to pick up any of these guys who are old and broken Winning makes believers of us all

I had a really bad ankle sprain at work years ago. I jumped down off a loading dock and my foot landed on top of a wheel chock and folded my foot under me. It hurt like hell the instant it happened, but I was able to make it through my shift with a slight limp and some discomfort. Woke up the next day and it's swollen up 2x it's normal size and purple. Not saying that's the case with Mixon, but it's not always readily apparent how bad it is when it happens.

Perine did just find last year when put into the starting position, he won;t get the ball like Mixon and Evans will get more snaps, but he is a vet, did fine last year and secure with the ball.. Hope Mixon is ok but i feel fine with Perine and the rookie Evans as replacements

Bell hadn't been worth a damn in 4 years either. He's literally just a recognizable name at this point, and been around longer than Gurley.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

I just don't see how one of these guys couldn't upgrade a guy who is averaging 3.1 ypc and can't block. Perine's best season is a joke compared to just about any season by Duke Johnson.

It might be good to wait for real world information from actual sources as opposed to an "article" that is quoting a tweet by a pretty disreputable source. Mixon was working on walking it out on the sideline which is not something you can do with a high ankle sprain.
