Any news on Jourdan Lewis injury?

Dagger if he misses significant time…Lewis is very solid and a rookie CB starting terrifies me.

Rookie is better anyway

This is one time I wish there was a thumbs down option. You can think the Rookie is better anyway, but this is concerning an injury.

Per twitter thread looks like a sprain, no fracture confirmed***per twitter thread

.from what it looked on telly. He's out at least few games.

we need to trade for a cb then if lewis injury is serious. the thought of nashon wright playing scares me. bland is ok but now wright will be activated which may be a bad thing to do.

We like our guys

If he was he would be the starter.

may not trust a rookie.

A little read if you are unfamiliar with Lisfranc related foot injuries:

TLDR - He will probably be out the remainder of the regular season. He will need surgery. 10-14 weeks is an average timeframe of recovery. 8 weeks in the best case scenario. The rest of the year including the post-season in the worst case scenario.


Options include operative or non-operative treatment. One study claims that in athletes, and if the dislocation is less than 2 mm, the fracture can be managed with casting for six weeks. The person's injured limb cannot bear weight during this period. In the majority of cases early anatomical reduction and stable fixation is indicated. A 2005 study suggests that closed reduction and Kirschner wire (K-wire) stabilisation or open reduction and stabilisation - generally using screws to avoid the complication of K-wires and maintain a stable reduction - are the treatments of choice.
According to a 1997 study, for severe Lisfranc injuries, open reduction with internal fixation (ORIF) and temporary screw or Kirschner wire fixation is the treatment of choice. The foot cannot be allowed to bear weight for a minimum of six weeks. Partial weight-bearing may then begin, with full weight bearing after an additional several weeks, depending on the specific injury. K-wires are typically removed after six weeks, before weight bearing, while screws are often removed after 12 weeks

Rookie has nothing to do with it. Tyler Smith is starting.

Put in bland…..live with some rookie mistakes. By end of season he’ll be better. He’s a play maker. Nasty tackler.

don’t be obtuse. You know what I mean.

Bland is not an upgrade on Lewis. Stop it.

We shall see.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

First mistake Bland makes, he will become public enemy #1. Such a fickle fan base. Get well soon, JLew. Hope we don't miss a beat without him.

Yes, let's try to trade for a CB immediately. The best strategy would be to appear desperate, GM's are typically compassionate and certainly won't take advantage of another team's misfortune.
