Chase likely has something similar to an Avulsion Fracture which is a fracture at the tendon/muscle connection to the bone, It could be something as simple as a small crack in the bone or a chip which is 4-6 weeks, that cooresponds to what most of the media is reporting. If it was something more serious, the odds are he wouldn't have been walking without assistance on Sunday. If the connection had broken off entirely we would be looking at surgery and a months-long recovery, not weeks. Avulson fractures in the hip, often happen to athletes with still maturing skeletons (open growth plates) so this might mean that Chase, at 22, just finished a growth spurt or has one more left.
Zac added nothing to the discussion today.
