MT to injured reserve. Should be close to 100% for playoffs

Ok but all I'm saying is that as long as Thomas keeps running and practicing and playing at the level he plays at there is very little to no chance that his ankle will heal to 100% this season.

The first time I ever heard of a high ankle sprain was when it happened to Ricky Williams his rookie year with the Saints and it bothered him the entire season.

Ask Alvin Kamara how long a high ankle sprain takes to heal. Jimmy Garapollo had the same thing happen in game 2 this season and reaggravated it in week 7 and he hasn't even made it back to practice yet.

Right, which is why he’s taking the time off. Kamara didn’t take enough last year and it clearly affected him.

Thankfully, Thomas is months removed from the actual injury and by the time he takes the field again, he will have gone nearly a month without playing a game. That’s a lot of time to get close to 100%, as Saints sources have said is their goal.
