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

Ok whatever you you want to make yourself believe but teams don't put players of Thomas's caliber on IR to save them for the playoffs. If that were the case then Brees wouldn't be playing tomorrow.

He has obviously reaggravated the original injury so the months removed from the actual injury is a moot point right now. I still don't see any scenario that he will be anywhere close to 100% the rest of this season.

Not really making myself believe anything. All of these things we know, based on credible reports:

1. MT suffered a high ankle sprain
2. He tried to play through it
3. He played well, but not to his lofty standard
4. The injury hasn’t improved *since returning and running through practices and games.*
5. Team is now IR-ing him because this injury heals better with more rest and they want him 100% for the playoffs.

You’re stating things like “He has obviously reaggravated the original injury so the months removed from the actual injury is a moot point right now...” as though it is a reported or medi fact.

Then using that to make a leap like “I still don't see any scenario that he will be anywhere close to 100% the rest of this season.”

Just disagree.
