Good news for now that it's still a knee sprain, looking like we dodged a bullet.

a sprain is good enough news since no mention of tearing anything, which could take you months, a sprain is usually 2 weeks to 1 month

There was imaging done last night or this morning so we should hear more about the severity of the sprain and a rough timeline before the game. It remaining a sprain doesn’t tell us the grade of sprain.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Grade of sprain only matters if it is mcl or lcl.

ACL sprains still require surgery and are 8-10 months.

The amateur medical diagnoser in me thinks with no updates today that it might be a meniscus injury.

Why didn't we hear this earlier? Grade 1 MCL then or no sprain at all?

PHEWWWWW.

Day to day likely means grade 1 sprain, likely out for 2 weeks, and will miss 4-5 games.

Let's hope. The pessimistic side of me expects a "once the swelling went down it revealed things were worse than expected"

What does this even mean? Was it a sprain or not? MRI should show a partial tear if there was one.

This reporting makes no sense at all. Either the MRI shows the sprain or it's not a sprain and a different injury.

it's just a low grade 1 sprain that you get from a tweak.....a sprain is still a tear but the grade determines how bad the tear is.

minor fiber tears (Grade 1), partial tear (Grade 2), complete tear (Grade 3)
