So who do you believe?

Great. Didn't want a partially torn Achilles or something to show up. We have the depth to cope, but it will be nice to have reinforcements like Hardy, Mclain and eventually Gregory coming for the D as the season goes on. That early bye is a blessing now

I always add a couple of weeks to Cowboys reported injury timelines.

Damn, and HA sprains have a high probability of reoccurring too. This will likely effect him all season. Week 5 can't get her soon enough for this DL.

 

[Tabascocat]

Six weeks, high ankle sprain is something that needs to heal completely or it will linger all season.

 

[Idgit]

Whew. I was secretly gripping this one. They left just enough wiggle room in his diagnosis last night.

Frankly, I'm ecstatic with either one. I thought that was an Achilles for sure.

I think Rappaport is going with what the usual time frame is for high ankle sprains. Obviously the Jones' would have more info, maybe it's not as bad of a sprain as say TO had when he was here, and the return date more towards the '4 weeks' rather than 6+

So who do you believe?

I will go with Rappaport on injuries all day!

Could have been worse
Thought it was when I seen it
I expect 6 weeks for a speed rusher but could have been a season

High ankle sprains are weird. Some guys can recover in 2 weeks, others need closer to 6. Ibuprofen and RICE that ankle Gregory and hopefully we'll have you back by the Patriots game. At worst, after the bye.

 

[Direwolf63]

This is the best case scenario. I thought he was done for the year when I saw the highlight last night.

Well, at least they didn't say "day-to-day"....those are the real killers that always drag on for months.

I believe the source closest to Gregory.

Hopefully, Gregory gives TO a call to borrow that magical hyperbaric chamber.

I am always skeptical of the Cowboys' injury reports but I think Gregory might be one of those who heal a little faster than normal.

 

[windjc]

Randy has a special body. I'm not predicting he will heal faster than average, but it is not uncommon for elite athletes like himself to do so.

 

[Nightman]

Even his ankle gets High......what a loser

I think Dez will be in there first
