Matt Johnson has a small stress reaction in his foot. Going to rest him then work with him from there.

“@wjasonp:
stress reaction? Dummie terms please.”
@BryanBroaddus
What I was told.

 

[AsthmaField]

Has to mean stress fracture.

 

[Chuck 54]

Means not fractured or broken, but painful.

His foot hurts.

 

[Nova]

Acute stress reaction (also called acute stress disorder, psychological shock,mental shock, or simply shock) is a psychological condition arising in response to a terrifying or traumatic event.

...So it's all in his head? Awesome.

I was watching parts of the game and I was thinking I wonder if johnson played. Lol then they say his Injured in the locker room. I couldnt help but almost laugh. Dont want him hurt but hes just injury prone and cant be counted on and is a waste of a roster spot. This guy is pure glass.They need to cut him and sign another s.

 

[danielofthesaints]

Doesn't compare to the stress reaction he's given me for the past year and a half.

 

[JohnnyHopkins]

Matt Johnson is fast becoming a constant gluteal stress reaction.

 

[The Natural]

lol..

I believe that it means that there isn't clear sign of a fracture but they are seeing something that could be one. Found this definition:

A stress reaction precedes a stress fracture in the bone fatigue failure continuum and is hallmarked by bony microfailure without cortical
disruption. These injuries are most common in the lower extremities of endurance and repetitive-motion athletes such as runners, jumpers, skaters, and soldiers.

Has to mean stress fracture.

X-Ray showed negitive on his foot. Based on what I read on "Stress Reaction" is a bone contusions but not a break. Evidently Eli had the same thing in the 09 season

Updating @BryanBroaddus on MJohnson foot: 1) Not resting this could be precursor to a stress fracture. #Cowboys wise to rest here
#Cowboys MJohnson 2) The effected bone is key. Minimal-weight-bearing bone can heal in a week or 2. But ...
#Cowboys MJohnson 3) But if it's weight-bearing (2nd metatarsal or navicular bone), may require a month of rest.

 

[TellerMorrow34]

So basically this kid is not going to get any kind of real work in prior to the season and thus be a non-factor yet again.

Awesome.

 

[Machete]

Pathetic.

 

[Doomsday101]

Bad luck for Johnson and in the end this may cost him a spot on the roster. I see no reason to add insult to injury.

 

[sureletsrace]

Ugh. Getting tired of this. I guess his foot was stressed out from actually having to be stood upon?

I'm sure he is getting tired of it. It is his career hanging in the balance I doubt this is how he hoped things would go for himself.

 

[bayeslife]

Yeah, he can pack his bags tomorrow and I wouldn't think anything of it. Cya.

 

[links18]

No sympathy for the injured? It must be his fault right? Not bad luck?

 

[Gadfly22]

I see. "Stress reaction" is a precursor to a stress fracture. Which I'm sure Johnson has penciled in for August 29. Unless he pulls a hamstring getting out of bed, breaks his small toe putting on his fuzzy slippers and accidentally stabs himself in the eye with his toothbrush.
