MRI Shows Owens has high ankle sprain

[JBS]

Is that really worse than starting Jason Campbell at QB though? I don't think it makes too much of a difference, myself.

skins are also missing jansen, rogers, thomas, and mcintosh. I would say those 4 are equivelant to us missing TO. Factor in the fact that our backups will be playing and it should be a nailbitter.

this would have been better news if he broke his ankle. i have a feeling he will miss the nfc championship if we get there.

I'll take a repeat of his Super Bowl XXXIX performance

With one noteable exception. A Cowboy victory!

Henry came back after 2 weeks....i sprained mines 3 weeks ago...and it took me 5 days to to heal from it...trust me he will be ok

didn't crayton and henry take like 8 weeks or something crazy? a high ankle sprain is different from a regular sprain. a break usually heals faster.

depends on degree of ankle sprain. A severe high ankle sprain can take 4+ weeks to be ready to be played on.

A more minor sprain can be ready in 2-3 weeks.

My son recently had a severe high ankle sprain with no fracture. One week in the boot and was working out with baseball team indoors at 10 days and by week 2 almost back to playing form. Now week 3 he's back to almost 100%.

But some heal faster than others - noted

we'll be evenly matched vs. the Skins, they are hurting just as bad as we are

they're starting Todd Collins at QB for goodness sakes

he's looked pretty good, bob. I think they have a better chance of winning with collins than campbell.

We don't have McNabb at QB.
