I asked why I was able to keep playing, but was basically immobile after that, and the orthopedist explained that once at rest that blood and other fluids were able to leak out of the damaged tissues, limiting the joint further...

We really don't know as they're not going to post his MRI and say this is what we have; but, if he's in a boot to limit further damage, I'd say four to six weeks for a normal human being...

F**king Washington...Expensive Victory...
