A grade 1 high ankle sprain, which this appears to be, is generally a 2-6 week injury. If next week wasn’t the AFCC game he wouldn’t play. But it is and he will. It will be taped heavily. He probably will not wear a brace as they restrict motion too much. He’ll likely have a torodol injection and even possibly a lidocaine injection into the ankle itself. It will be difficult for him to push off the foot which will be most noticeable on long passes. Lateral movements also will be compromised.
He should be limited this week in practice maybe even missing a day but this is Patrick Mahomes so he might defy all the medical experts, and armchair expectations. Bengals need to prepare as if he is normal Patrick
