not enough days between games for him to fully recover, I'd guess.

[Mekeritrig]

It would be hard to imagine the Dolphins risking such an important part of their offense to a more severe injury on a short week. Broken or not, his ankle is probably keeping him on the bench this Thursday.

Sprains can be every bit as bad as breaks. I seriously doubt he will play Thursday.

[Brandon]

I doubt he'll play, ankle sprains need lots of rest and with only 4 days to get ready there's no way the coaches would put him in there and set him back any longer.

[Proudiddy]

I doubt he plays... For a couple weeks maybe. I had a 3rd degree ankle sprain in '06 while playing ball. I didn't walk for a month and my foot looked like an elephants, lol. It was disgusting.

I doubt his is anywhere near that bad, but no doubt he won't have the explosiveness he usually does and is more likely to roll it again if he plays. His doesn't sound serious at all, but I doubt he plays.

[SorthNarolina]

If his ankled was injuried severely enough for him to need an x-ray, and he left on crutches, I doubt he can go for thursday. They should give him the game off certainly.

[Pantherman]

Who cars. All that matters that the panthers pull out a win. That all that matter at this point.

the patriots lose. we are 2 games back in the division....we are 3-1 in the division.....the pats play the saints still, and we play the pats at home still.....we need every game.....we win today and we're .500 with buffalo, jax and tenn coming up. this is a HUGE GAME for us.....colts did us a huge favor....wouldnt surprise me if ronnie played. he healed fast from his acl....hes a beast.....who know? if not....ricky had 102 yards rushing on 20 carries today, hes still got gas left in the tank

There are these little things called needles and a world of choices to mask the pain people.

There are these little things called needles and a world of choices to mask the pain people.

One thing is the pain. Another thing is the risk of roll it over again and get further injured.

He will not play.

there is no way brown plays on a ankle sprain...even if they tape it to death he wouldnt be able to cut...the everytime he tries to cut on it, its going to hurt like a bitch...depending on how bad it is he is going to at least need 2 weeks to a month
