stewart and tolbert injury update

[nosuchthingasapanther]

Coach Ron Rivera said he doesn't believe Jonathan Stewart sustained a high ankle sprain Sunday night.

True high ankle sprains sideline players for a month or more and involve damage to the tibia as well. Sunday night X-rays on Stewart's right wheel were completely negative, hinting at a Grade 1 or 2 sprain. We'd expect the Panthers to release a timetable once further testing is completed back in Charlotte. Consider Stewart questionable for Week 1.

Jonathan Stewart‏@Jonathanstewar1

Twitter followers and fans.. Thanks for all the prayers and concerns about my ankle, it means alot! I will be back on the field soon!

Jonathan Stewart (ankle) is day-to-day.

That's apparently the extent of Stewart's timetable after X-rays of his right ankle came back negative. More than likely, he'll turn in a limited slate of practices next week before suiting up against Tampa Bay in the opener.

Stewart didn't have a ton of weight on his foot when he rolled his ankle. It was a quick thing. I think he's definately day-to-day. Nothing to worry about.

[HeatCheck]

Sure hope Poole is back and ready to impress next week.

I think he'll make it but it'd be nice to see it on the field one more time.

i don't know guys, I think they might have to amputate the whole leg

That is exactly what happened though. His foot rolled inward toward his opposite leg. What happened to Stew is exactly how high ankle sprains occur.

You might wanna take another look at that replay. Foot rolls to the outside.

If you can tell me where I can find the video I will gladly show you. His right cleat gets caught in the turf as his momentum carries him to the right, rolling the right foot inward. Seriously, I'm 100% positive on this. Do you know where I can find the video?

You're right but you're wrong at the same time. Technically his foot is on the inside of the roll, but the direction of the roll is to the outside - IE his ankle rolls to the outside of his foot.

No, I'm plain right. His FOOT rolls to the inside. That's what I've said the entire time. That is how high ankle sprains happen, that is the same as the diagram in the link I sent you earlier. I specifically said "foot" (as did you) to eliminate confusion. The way he rolls it is the same way high ankle sprains happen and his foot went to the inside.

EDIT: Sorry Floppin, thought I was replying to the same person. If you go back in the thread and read L-Town's post at the top of page 3 and see my later reply. I make it very clear what I am talking about. L-Town initially said that his "foot" rolls to the outside which is not the way high ankle sprains happen.

I wasn't saying you were wrong, just pointing out that that type of roll is typically referred to as rolling to the outside. The definition usually refers to the direction of the ankle's movement, since that's what's rolling technically.
