Bryce Young - High Ankle Sprain, out minimum 1 week

There's a lot of reasons for this! Bryce is a good athlete for a person his size, but bigger athletes are better athletes, and the bodies work more efficiently. Not just at the mechanical level, but at the cellular. Bigger, faster athletes require better, more efficient systems etc. 

1. Physiologic reserve - Bryce is a smaller, more slender guy. There's just not a lot of him. people with less amounts of muscle mass (generally) will heal more slowly than someone like Cam. Similarly, peole with high amounts of body fat will heal from mechanical injuries more slowly than someone with less BF and similar lean muscle mass. It's just one of those things.

Same thing with how his actual injury doesn't look like much. Imagine an NFL player suffering some horrific looking injury and being fine in two plays. Then think of how easy it was, even when you were young, to roll your ankle and be down for 2 weeks. 

2. Less blood flow - blood flow leads to healing, especially with tendon injuries because they're not inherently vascular. High ankle sprains are actually a bone injury as well. Bryce is just little. There's not a lot of blood in there to transport the healing blood factors. Imagine how tiny his ankles are. This is similar to the reason Alex Smith had such a radical surgery to heal an infection in his shin/calf; there's just not a lot of meat there to bring blood to get in antibiotics in there to fight the infection. So they cut a hunk of flesh off his thigh and attached it to his shin. Looks awful, but it worked. 

3. Can't handle as much rehab - he's smaller, will get tired more quickly, will take longer to recover, etc. 

4. medical history - really only had one injury in the past, it was an "ac sprain" after a tackle against TAMU, and it took him weeks to recover. 

 

This is hilarious and complete and utter bullshit you just made up in your head. I am genuinely laughing. Especially about the blood flow part. Absolutely wild.

You could never produce any evidence to support any of these claims. A person who is smaller can’t handle as much rehab and will get tired quickly? What in the fug are you actually talking about?

Why you are pretending to have any sort of knowledge on this subject is beyond me. I mean this is a genuine contender for dumbest thing I have ever seen or read.

Thank you for your time.

I do enjoy how Canales kept downplaying it and acting like Bryce might play and is day-to-day. Even a Grade I takes a couple weeks to get over. He’s obviously trying to make the Bills review film on 2 different QBs. Meanwhile you are adding a 2nd QB to your practice squad on a Monday night like nobody will notice.

If this is true, then why did humungous NBA players like Greg Oden and Al Jefferson never truly heal?

Not to mention they got the QB from the Bills themselves

What about the blood flow part? How do you think the body transports anti inflammatories, signaling proteins, (in part) clears out dead tissue? It’s why anemic people are poor surgical candidates; they won’t heal. Or why people with poor vascular systems have wounds that never heal. Blood heals things. Blood makes muscles go. This is not controversial. What do you think cyclists using EPO are doing?

Why do you think blood flow restriction training is the standard for athletes rehabbing various injuries?

it takes two seconds to look this up. This study was about chronic ankle instability in general, but the results are comparable.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9081407/

as someone who is currently going through this for a much more serious injury it’s exhausting. 

Larger amounts of lean muscle mass leading to improved healing results isn’t even controversial. Bigger people are generally going to have more muscle mass, and athletes are going to have more lean muscle mass.

As an extreme example, why do you think resistance training is emphasized so much for the 50+ population?

I’m sweating. 

Bryce has to know the stakes of this season for his career. He might try to come back too early. Trevor Lawrence did that, was terrible, they missed the playoffs because of it; he still got the contract extension, and now he looks like damaged goods. 

but he got the bag so whatever I guess.

Twist the knife Joe.
Gonna deny us our annual Andy game. 
Honestly I think it would be reckless to put him out there on a bum ankle. 
I haven’t seen Andy to be really confident (even though I correctly was just last year), but it also goes to who gives us the best chance to win question. 
 

I mean, since we are all about winning now.
