You don't run RPOs with a QB dealing with a high ankle sprain either FFS. :-)
Hell why not just have him roll to the left and run naked bootlegs all night? Want to know why you never see QBs get hurt on QB sneaks??? Because teams who have franchise QBs dealing with REAL chronic high ankle sprains DON'T RUN FUCKING QB SNEAKS. [Reply]

Does the ankle provide stability to the knee? Yes it does. Its why there is now tons of data to suggest other injuries increase in probably a great deal when another area of the body isn't fully healed [Reply]

I would have actually sat him this week, short week and all, after 3 consecutive weeks hurting his ankle and let his ankle heal. Prepare Matt with the first team and give ourselves the best shot to win while protecting Mahomes. It's a simple risk analysis.
I may sound like your father here but... I don't care what anyone else is doing. Other teams are welcome to place their franchise in whatever danger they like. I wish Andy was a little more gentle with his toys.
But hey... we are now going to be led by a guy that was out of football last year for an indefinite amount of time for so we have that going for us now.
/I hope 10 days is enough for Patrick but I also wouldn't mind seeing him sit a game to heal. [Reply]
