Apparently he walked it off and wasn't even gimpy by the end of the game.

I watched it in slow motion. I'll bet it's a medial ankle sprain. Most are lateral sprains, where you turn your foot to the inside then roll it over. On the replay, it looked like his toes caught in the turn and his foot turned to the outside. Hopefully it will heal quickly.

I assume you are talking about Crayton, right?
And are you a doctor or did you just stay at a Holiday Inn Express?

No, I'm talking about Carpenter. If you watch closesly, right before he made contact with the runner, it looked like the toes of his shoes caught in the turf and he "tweaked" the inside (medial) portion of his ankle.

Yes, I am a family doctor, and I have stayed in a Holiday Inn Express!

This isn't good. I just hope Patrick Crayton, Terrell Owens, and Terry Glenn can stay healthy because mainly T.O and P.C been the ones who been getting hurt Patrick Crayton seem to have a injury bug on him. It could happen to anybody, but I think he should remain on the roster because he is a explosive weapon, I believe if he could stay healthy for a whole season, he could win over the starting spot, cause he got what it takes.

He has speed in running his routes precisely. T.O./P.C/and T.G. all have some things in common.

Qualities:: T.O. has that sneaky speed, he could just very well blaze right past you for a touchdown. Terry Glenn, he has that "right from the start speed", he's already up field in 2.5 seconds on flat out routes, and his route running ability is amazing, he has to be in the top 3 in the NFL, if not the best one. Patrick Crayton, is one of them versatile wide receiver, he's the type of wide receiver that understand mostly all of the positions that requires you to run with a ball in your hand, he broke records in passing yards, rushing yards, and receiver yards. One word "Phenomenal".
