You have experience in the medical field @Broncofan? Or just really familiar with high ankle sprains?

Well, you don't need to be in the medical field to know the above....but yes.  Doesn't really matter though, not like they send me the MRI reports lol.

Well, THAT'S about to change! Happily, Dr. Robert Anderson, the ankle specialist, and the Chief of Staff at The Mayo Clinic, turn out to be regular readers of ProFootballsFuture, and HUGE fans of @Broncofan- as I am myself, Ha! Ha!- and they would like to hire you in a consultative capacity on the Saquon case- if you're so inclined! They admitted they've been reading your posts for years, and have many times relied upon your judgements, from afar; now, with your permission, they would like to download Saquon's MRI reports to you for your opinion. And- again, if you're willing- they would like to fly you into The Meadowlands complex (helicopter will pick you up at Newark Airport) to take a personal look at Saquon's ankle! Pretty short notice, I know, and all they can pay you is $500,000 right now, but it would be for one weekend's work.

I told them I thought you might be able to fit it in- and they could hardly get a more-knowledgeable guy for both the nuances of pro football, and the recovery prognosis for Saquon's ankle sprain. We'll be rooting for you, @Broncofan!!!

Shurmur has not ruled Saquon out for Sunday’s game. I don’t expect him to play this week or Thursday, but it looks like this is a 4 week high ankle sprain, not 8. Good news for the Giants.

Least shocking thing ever. Dude is an absolute freak of nature. Peterson level freak

I think the week after patriots will be returned. Patriots is TNF, so let’s get him 100%

While this obviously makes the most sense. Not only do they need to take the decesion out of Saquan's hands who will want to play, but Shurmurs and Gettlemans as well.

We know GD well how big a TNF win vs the Patriots would go for this FO, Jones, Shurmur ect.... Barkley helps that! Doctors better be on point!

Given that you're actually looking out for Saquons health despite being an Eagles fan... Means you absolute love Saquon and probably hate that he's a Giant.

I hope we see him vs the Patriots. Could be a good matchup.

The week he feels ready to play and is medically cleared, he is playing that game. Saquon said that you can't be worried about re-injuring it, and he's right. You go by the doctors and how you feel. He won't play this week, but I think even on a short week, the Patriots game is in play. He really wants to play against Brady. He'll be back by the Cardinals game at the latest.

He's also superhuman.
