This. If he plays too soon, I fear compensatory injury. You can be as tough as you like but soft tissue takes time to heal. You can't simply, tape it up.The history of coming back too soon from soft tissue injuries is almost all bad.
Sit out through the bye, Mike. The Saints can beat the Raiders, Lions, and Chargers without you.
If the team goes into the bye 4-1 with a 100% Mike Thomas coming out the other side of it, that's a great place to be.

I know people are skittish about Thomas returning too soon, but the thing about Thomas' injury is it looked very minor. He pulled his feet out so quickly that I I thought he didn't even injure himself. If it was a severe high ankle sprain, then I would agree that he should sit until after the bye, but I think he may be fine this week, much less waiting until after the bye. I know the Saints are being cautious by keeping him out this week, and I'm not a doctor, but I believe he is fine. I wonder if it was swollen after the incident, and how much it swole?
Thomas is going to see Dr. James Andrews?A high ankle sprain is a tear which can keep a player injured for 4-8 weeks. With MT, I am with those that are saying "sit him." The fact that he is going to see Andrews, the clear best in his field, is a little concerning, however it may just be to get his approval to start playing sooner. We shall see

I was believing it for a minute -- right on cue for 2020.Doug - Thank you. My bad. Appreciate you clearing this up!
