COLSTON - BROKEN COLLARBONE, OUT 4 WEEKS

Euphoria · 09-10-2011, 09:54 AM

I am surprised no one has mentioned this...

I saw the play he was injured on. We were in a hurry up offense and he got up favoring his injury and lined up. He was hurt and going to run the next play!!!

I am unsure if we got the play off or what... I am going to have to go back and check but that is pretty amazing. He knew he was hurt and got up.

If I suspected I broke my collarbone, they are carting me off the field!

What that probably means is that it isn't a complete separated break; just a crack or "green stick" fracture. That might be why they're saying 4 weeks instead of the usual 8. I wish I could get a quick look at that x-ray.
