Is Dez's ankle an issue?

[Gridiron Man]

If anyone hears anything on this give us a shout. He seemed pretty upset on the sideline. Fortunately he was back in the game. I'd imagine many others are wondering about this as well. Lets hope it isn't an issue.

 

[Ren]

Doubt it, he came right back out there for the 2ptc attempt

 

[kojak]

I am not a doctor but he was back out there for the two point try. I think the frustration was more about the Giants basically taking him out of the game. He was a non factor.

Sure hope your right. He and Romo both had me spooked today.

Hard to tell. Sprained ankles hurt but don't swell up right away if that's the case.

 

[CATCH17]

It looked awful..

I'm glad it wasn't broke.

That's right. It's very common to be able to go back and play on a sprained ankle right after it happens only to hear they are out for next week after the swelling kicks in or the MRI shows something like a high ankle sprain.

I worry about Dez sometimes.

He takes a lot of hits due to his propensity to fight for extra yards -- I find it hard to fault him for it, however, he missed games in 2010 (his rookie year), in 2011 he missed a game and wasn't 100% for a few others in the beginning of the season, in 2012 he had an injury the Doctors basically told him to call it a season on to his finger -- I'm glad he didn't and played through it, however in the final game against the Commanders he got hurt again and wasn't there in the end.

The good news is he hasn't had a major injury since his rookie year. Hopefully that continues.

It'll probably hurt him a bit tonight and even more tomorrow. From the way he was reacting, I thought it was high ankle or worse.

I agree about the extra effort, but this time it looked like the turf monster got him. Hopefully, it's not serious.

I did, too. He looked pretty upset. Then they put him back in, as a decoy, I thought. And threw it to him. I'm hoping for the best, obviously.

 

[Pabst]

I think he'll be alright. To be honest, when he was upset on the sideline, I think it had a lot to do with him simply not getting many targets tonight. He was getting frustrated well before his ankle got tweaked; it was probably the straw the camel's back, so to speak.

I understand that; all great wideout's always want the ball. But the Giants sold out to take him out of the game, and still lost. You can blame that on the turnovers, but it is what it is.

 

[Nirvana]

I am doubtful Dez plays next week.

 

[Gridiron Man]

I doubt we will see anything definitive on this today. So far I find no reports.

 

[tecolote]

I think he was upset about not getting the first down and having a quiet game.

 

[mldardy]

Lot of assumptions tonight. Dez won't play next week? Wow really thanks Doctor. Dez was upset that he wasn't getting the ball? No he wasn't. I heard on the Fan that Dez told the coaches he didn't care about getting the ball. He's rather be a decoy and let others that are open or more open get the ball.

 

[gerbjim22]

He played 2 pt conversion and was in on Onside kick. Im hoping that wasn't just adrenaline , (same with Romo) but I'm optimistic that he's ok.

 

[theogt]

Not sure I recall ever seeing someone return to a game with a high ankle sprain.
