..... Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo admitted Thursday that Collins, among the league’s best defensive players last year, was slowed for much of this season by a high ankle sprain. The only time Collins has been on the team’s injury list this season was Week 6 against the Denver Broncos, when he was questionable with an ankle injury. He sprained the ankle during the Week 5 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Odell Beckham Jr. suffered a high ankle sprain in the Giants’ second preseason game and was never completely healthy before suffering a season-ending ankle fracture Week 5. Olivier Vernon has missed four games and played only portions of two others this season due to a high ankle sprain...... |
other than a contract bonus provision for #games played that maybe LS argued for, a rest/further exam/shut down of your key, young, tough, downlow S would have been a wiser handling...but then again, given recent events...not a surprise.
agree, the point wasn't should be play or not, but could he.
He's got to be pretty tough to gut it out.
We flame guys on game threads, talk about guys who "quit, but We. Do. Not. Know. What's. Going. On.

and you don’t just stop playing at 0-5. Collins playing is the right move, it’s not like it was a back injury. High Ankle Sprains hurt like hell but they aren’t career killers. Can’t just sit everyone with a tummy ache.

Agree. My initial post was in response to Old Man's.
