Dragon Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Normal sprain should be 2... MAYBE 3 weeks if it's bad. Hopefully we can weather the storm until he gets back on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Big loss during a stretch of real teams. I like Breida but Grey will need to shoulder some of the load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am glad the 49ers game is one that he will miss - because I have zero hope we win that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 I'm no doctor of course... but the way his ankle turned, it looked like one of those "roll your ankle, but the wrong way," which usually means closer to 4-5 weeks. I do not want to rush him back. He rushed back his sophomore year from a similar injury and looked very pedestrian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmenroc Posted September 19, 2023 Author Share Posted September 19, 2023 He was cleared of the high ankle sprain. If he is off of it and only does light stretching on it to maintain some level of range of motion and avoid the stiffness 3 weeks from now, 3 weeks sounds about right. I have sprained my ankles many times, to the point of crutches and various types of support, and I was always done with that stuff after 3 weeks...but the soreness and stiffness and regaining flexibility was always the worst part. Figure with the million dollar care these guys get and his importance to the team, his recovery will surpass anything most of us have access to.

mastershake Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Good news, bad news. Bad news is we know he'll miss a few games. Good news is we know he's not worth a double digit contract this offseason, and likely not a multi year deal, unless it's something inexpensive.

gmenroc Posted September 19, 2023 Author Share Posted September 19, 2023 Oh, I think drafting Grey was a way of hedging that bet. In the good news camp, we will be able to evaluate Grey in-season. Either way, I can't see them bringing Barkley back long term. There is a small chance they tag him again, but I tend to doubt that. Barkley is worth double digits...but low double digits...I am good with 10-12 per with injury outs...but nothing longer than 2 or 3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Grey looked horrible in preseason. Just throwing that out there. Also, he's slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't say horrible...would say about right given draft. If he can give 3 or 4 yards consistently, it'll be enough. That's not too much to ask, no? Though it's moot against the 49ers.

Figure with the million dollar care these guys get and his importance to the team, his recovery will surpass anything most of us have access to. Tiki Barber... (look at the source) said that RB's play with ankle sprains 90% of the time. After a couple of weeks off they will probably tape him up and send him back out there. Most high ankle sprains have a slight fracture, tendon or ligaments tear that really needs to heal like a pure fracture... 6 to 8 weeks at least. Too often in football they bring someone back when they are 60-70% when another week or two would heal them up closer to 80-90%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman_NYG Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Oh well - Daboll isnt ruling out Barkley even for Thursday. He said Barkley felt much better next day and was even able to put weight on it. Maybe mind games - but am sure he the 9ers game - but maybe thats it. If thats the case - THANK GOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nas Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Even if he plays against the 9ers (doubt it), it should be a light load but enough to force the 9ers to account for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmenroc Posted September 21, 2023 Author Share Posted September 21, 2023 Gotta wonder if behind some closed door the Giants figured we were gonna lose, so why not rest these guys for the long haul. No one would, or should, ever admit that...but again, I wouldn't be shocked if that played into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replace this with practically anyone the Giants drafted the last 10 years and it still is true. lol But yeah I was super excited for Ojulari, dude hasn't really shown that potential.

Virginia Giant Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 My new conspiracy theory Saquon was never injured. The giants felt strongly they were going to win the game and had SB game an injury, hence the huge angry reaction on the sideline, have played coy all week about his availability because they know with the short week of prep, SF will have to choose to game plan either with or without Saquon and will default to the giants playing it safe with him. Giants come out with a full strength Saquon hoping SF has just spent several days assuming he was going to be out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
