what exactly was Henrys foot injury? 

Foot injuries are quite nagging in general

 

 

The Jones fracture 

 

The assumption he's going to be just fine off of this is a bit confusing to me.

 

He's at an almost 100% chance of it happening again.  And is he even going to be 100%  

 

 

Don't really care.  He is the least of my worries in the playoffs.  It's AJ Brown I'm more concerned with.

First hit on google-

Jones fractures have a higher chance than other metatarsal fractures of not healing. They also have a higher chance of fracturing again after they've healed. Conservative treatment for Jones fractures has a 15 to 20 percent failure rate. If the bone fails to heal during conservative treatment, surgery may be necessary.

If anyone thinks that he won't be available and ready to play in 3 weeks, I've got some lovely real estate in Florida that you might be interested in

Funny.  I would say the opposite.

 

Of course the team will maintain this idiotic NFL tradition of wanting everyone to think he's coming back.


As though there is some sort of advantage to be gained by Tennessee in doing so.

 

The time line never really lined up for a return for him.

 

I'll believe he can play when he's playing on the field.

If he's "back" and I doubt he is, it's one game.  That'll get dinged.  It'll hurt a lot.    You need months to properly recover from foot surgery, and now that the bench physician can't just shoot you up with Toradol, it'll be a real deal pain.

He's coming off a non-surgically healed/rehabbed Jones fracture? After 8 weeks only? And he'll be cleared and ready to play at his normal high level in a couple of weeks (10-11 weeks total healing/rehab time)?

This Jones guy has a lot to answer for

Oh yeah?  Me and the Misses are looking to relocate.  As long as it has good views of the Everglades.  😉
