Ok, I guess Shanle is up to the plate. After him, whose next?

Re: Saints LB Curtis Lofton sprains ankle

i blame this on goodell too. his new no hitting in practice and shortening up camp has made these guys not ready to make contact with other teams. i think im switching to baseball and quitting watching football until something changes

High Ankle Sprain
A high ankle sprain involves stretching or tearing of the large ligament (sydesmotic ligament) that joins together the two bones of the lower leg (fibula and tibia). High ankle sprains do not heal as quickly as low sprains and are generally managed by applying an air cast for about 6 weeks.

Not just yet.

Those examples don't really apply in this case. Roethlisberger is not a running quarterback, for one, but he played horribly with that injury last year. Gronkowski obviously has to run, but as I remember, he was a complete non factor in the Superbowl and the Patriots lost.

So this isn't something to take lightly. If they manage him right he'll be ok, so it's not panic time, but it is legitimate cause for concern.

Re: Saints LB Curtis Lofton sprains ankle

Saints LB Curtis Lofton (high ankle sprain) insists he could play this week if it was a regular season game.

"I'm feeling good," Lofton said. "Just doing what I'm told. Just taking care of it. It's still preseason so it's still early. But once Week 1 rolls around, I'll be ready to go." Lofton said he played through a similar injury in the final three games of last season.
