Sheldon Rankins likely done for season

If it's an ankle injury, though - it's probably not a playoff killer.   A Grade 2 HAS would be 4-6 weeks - but it's usually on the shorter end for guys who don't need as much lateral agility.   I'd be shocked if that's the diagnosis and he couldn't make it back for the Divisional round.   

If there's a fracture, though, then yeah, he's done.   Either way, tough week for the Saints - lose the inside track to the 1 seed, and the bye isn't even a lock yet, either.   Now this.

he tore his Achilles last year. If this is the same ankle, then it could be a big problem for him down the road. He tore it during the playoffs last year, I am shocked he was able to come back so fast tbh

Ah, that explains it.  Yeah, that's bad news for sure.   That's actually more worrisome, if it's related.  Damn, he's a huge part of their dominance.  No bueno.
