I broke and dislocated my left ankle when I was in the Navy. My foot was wrenched around almost backwards to where it's supposed to be. Had emergency surgery. They broke it back into place, and installed metal plates on both sides connected by three screws through the bones. With physical therapy and everything it was a 6 month recovery time to walk around and be able to work normally.

Brisset just isn’t very good.

1. Ouch. A kid I played soccer with in HS had that happen with his knee. Still remember the physical sensation it gave ME to look at that...

2. Yeah, Fountain ain't back until next OTAs at the EARLIEST. Probably training camp. This sounded like a complete dislocation.

Colts said that he was discharged from the hospital, but they are waiting on surgery. That's probably a good sign because it means that he has proper blood flow to the foot. I remember they had to rush Zach Miller to surgery to save his leg after his injury two years ago with the Bears.

Reece underwent ankle surgery on Friday and so far, so good. They expect a full recovery.

Hopefully this isn't career threatening. I wonder hwo it happened. Everyone said it was a non-contact rep.

He could have step on someones foot, gone up for a pass and landed wrong. Ever see the basketball players foot torque when they come done on another players foot? Yuk.

Fortunate for all the training staff was right there. Get that ankle reduced down and keep the blood flowing.

Yeah, it was pretty bad and it ultimately lead to me getting an early out from the Navy. I figure that if Fountain's ankle was anything close to how mine was he'd be out for the season. He's out.
