Gotta credit @TerryP for originally posting it in the Jalen injury thread...

You can bet that Tua's ankle is still not 100% well, is still weak and can be easily re - injured.

You need to keep doubling down and if the worst happens you can throw yourself a parade.

I hope Tua can play without any injury for as long as CNS needs him to, 2 1/2 maybe 3 quarters? I was never a serious player but have experience with a bad ankle. It took mine a long time to fully heal as I was very active. Either way, If Tua plays with or without injury to his ankle, there will be no parade for me.

Was yours a high ankle sprain? I'm sure yours was probably before orthos innovated the "tightrope" procedure, which drastically improves healing time...

My ankle injury was a roll over, occurred when jumping and coming down on a curved water drain at a neighbors home, in my middle teens, around 1970. I can't tell you if it was a high, low or what kind of sprain it was. The only treatment it received was hot salt water soakings, the same treatments I had for a strained elbow when I was around 7 years old. I suspect Tua's double injuries to his ankle were very painful, the sprain when he took a sack early in the game and later when 300 lb elephant LT stepped on it ending his night. Medical procedures are highly advanced these days especially for athletes. Procedures designed to get them back on the field as ASAP. In my view, it was a minor surgery, elective, as was JH surgery. With Tua's and Jalen's injuries, are both healed to the point as if they were never injured? If they are not healed to the point as if their injuries never happened, It will be easy to tweak and or re - injure their surgically repaired ankles, in the heat of the battle.

Tua says he'll be a hundo by 12/29
