Initially diagnosed with a contusion, Breaux on Monday underwent X-rays that revealed a more serious injury, according to a source, though still not an ailment considered long-term in nature.

The source declined to say the exact injury with which Breaux is suffering, but the cornerback was seen at the team facility Monday afternoon in a walking boot and using crutches.

Sounds like he has a leg fracture.

Well when Payton said it was minor I took him at his word...

And these guys have access to the best medical care in the world. Don't tell me it's a misdiagnosis.

Just did a little research. A bone bruise is actually a minor stress fracture. A slightly larger crack would be what we commonly know as a stress fracture. The edema, or swelling is basically the same with both and is all that an MRI can show. I also found out that a bone bruise can develop into a more pronounced stress fracture. A stress fracture, while slightly more severe than a bone bruise, it is still somewhat minor and no where near as serious as a bone fracture. I understand that it can be problematic telling the two apart until the swelling has subsided.

I love google.

You can't keep x-raying the leg when the issue is with his vagina

I think it is more a message that if you stay on the sidelines, we don't need you. If the guy is sincerely hurt and I could only imagine if it is a bone bruise/stress fracture, playing can definitely make it worse. I don't see what we can get for him that has any real value.
