i rewinded the game and he was sneaking up to the los and stopped and looked down at the field and came up gimp.

anyone know what the injury is?
 
Babe was saying on the radio show that he believed it was going to turn out to be an achiles injury.

I hope he's wrong about that.

pulled calf muscle

that would be wayyyyyyyyyyyyy better than achilles for sure.

maybe injured it having to save the long td run earlier.

It depends on what grade it is though. It can still be very bad:

A calf strain is similar to an Achilles tendon tear or rupture, but occurs higher up in the back of the leg. The signs of a calf strain are also similar to that of an Achilles tendon rupture - you may think you've just been hit in the back of the leg and hear an audible "pop." There will be sudden, sharp pain in the back of the lower leg, or pain, swelling and even bruising over the calf muscle. Most calf injuries will make it difficult to tolerate weight on injured side and make it very difficult to stand on the toes.
Calf Strain Cause and Severity

A calf strain or pull often happens during acceleration or an abrupt change in direction while running. A torn calf muscle may spasm, and contract forcefully so that the toes will automatically point downward. Bruises show up over the injured area as well as in the foot and ankle due to pooling of blood from internal bleeding.
Calf strains may be minor or very severe and are typically graded as follows:

Grade 1 Calf Strain: The muscle is stretched causing some small micro tears in the muscle fibers. Full recovery takes approximately two weeks.

Grade 2 Calf Strain : There is partial tearing of muscle fibers. Full recovery takes approximately 5-8 weeks.

Grade 3 Calf Strain: This is the most severe calf strain with a complete tearing or rupture of muscle fibers in the lower leg. Full recovery can take 3-4 months and, in some instances, surgery may be needed.

Sensy was in a boot, and said he heard a pop, but he would play next week. I don't know about that, a couple of years ago, while training, my calf popped and I had a grade 3 calf muscle tear.

That was one of the most painful things ever and took me 2 months to walk without a cane or crutches. I'm not a football player, but I can't imagine Sensy playing next week.
