Has me thinking high ankle sprain. Tough. 6-8 weeks? But we can sustain it with our deep DL. 


Let’s not jump to conclusions. 
The fact he came back after halftime and tried to play  makes me have hope it isn’t the high ankle sprain.

Somebody with a DVR watch that 4th down conversion the Rams had early; I think that was the play he got hurt on.

He made a really intelligent and really athletic play looping around the front of the WR so he didn't knock him forward and then planting and turning to get squared up and help with the tackle. The Guard only beat him there by a split second and it would have been a stop if he hadn't.

How many times do you see a guy from behind knocking a ballcarrier past the sticks, but Oliver knew exactly where he was and nearly made an obscenely good play to get the ball back

Walking boot not a huge concern. High ankle a concern. Highly doubt they’d send him out with a high ankle sprain. If he rolled it to the inside he’s good (back by next game or misses worse case 3 games). If it bent outward that’s the dreaded high ankle. 4-6 weeks & likely returns after bye week w/ Tre.

The fact he came back and then left made me feel worse. He couldn’t move when he came back.

Same.  No way he's back in there AFTER halftime if it's high ankle.  

 

Wouldn't be surprised if he needs 2 weeks tho.  

 

We should be able to handle Tennessee without him.
