TigerJ Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 With three games left, "season ending" would not be any kind of a shock. Hopefully, whatever medical treatment is required will happen quickly , and he can come back as good as new in training camp. Comparisons with Alex Smith don't hold water IMO. Alex Smith developed an infection post injury. that is the complicating factor that has the potential to end his career. There's no reason to think the same thing is likely to happen to Milano.

There was a blatant hold on Milano on the play, which didn’t allow him to turn toward Darnold and caused the injury. Saw that in the replay during the game. Clear hold.

Ankle fx and dislocations are a pain because of all the ligament tears. The rest depends on if it was just the distal fibula or it included the medial distal tibia. They can plate and screw both sided, but the tibia is weight bearing and can take longer to heal. Tore and chip fx might right one running track in high school. Rolled it pretty bad. Best thing that helped me gain strength and flexibility back in it was ice skating. Helped break down the scar tissue too.

Had to have it casted. Ironically slipped on some ice last winter stretching same ankle out. Had a buddy x-ray when I went into work. He said I think you fractured your ankle... told him that wasn't where it hurt. But the chip from high school is still there lol, that was what he was pointing to..

And I will always say breaks are often better for rehab than ligament tendon tears or dislocations. Shoulders are tough too. You need those to do way more than most think.

Technically, Corey Thompson is the next Will backer up. We likely see a lot more Lorax off the ball and lot of Raphael Bush as well. Richard Jarvis is on our practice squad. The best free agent is probably Marquis Flowers, former Bengal and Patriot. You've former Dolphin and Falcon Jordan Tripp as a FA. Practice squad wise, there are some interesting guys on other teams- Xavier Woodson Luster - (knows the system) Browns Brandon Chubb (Bradley's brother) - Panthers Josh Woods - Bears Chris Worley former OSU - Bengals Brady Sheldon (interesting guy from Ferris State) - Packers Kyle Wilson - Chargers James Burgess - Dolphins Matthew Thomas (FSU)- Steelers Josh Carraway (TCU) - Redskins That's all I got.

billsfan5121 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) Not that all breaks are the same but I broke my fibula, surgery wasn’t needed, and I was walking again in the normal 6 weeks. I’m also not an athlete so I guess I just needed to walk, not run, hit, etc. Regardless, since Milano needed surgery, clearly his was worse. I hope he’s back for TC.
