"Shoulder sprain", Per MM on post game show.  Nothing further on the severity.

 

From the web:  Grade I shoulder sprain, your discomfort should ease within one to two weeks, and you will be able to resume normal activities as soon as you can move your shoulder through its normal range of motion without pain. If you have a Grade II sprain, your discomfort should lessen within two weeks, but it may take as long as six to eight weeks before you can return to your usual athletic activities. People with Grade III shoulder sprains often return to work within four weeks. Athletes who participate in contact sports, however, have a high risk of injuring the area again, so they often need three to five months of rehabilitation before returning to their sport."

I always wonder how the Packers feel about that.  They love to play their cards close to their chest and Ian Rapoport obviously has a reliable source inside the organization.  I wonder if they're aware of who it is that leaks the information.  I have to imagine they know and are comfortable with it.  Maybe even have protocol to give Rapoport the info?  I also wonder what, if anything, they get back from Rapoport for the access.      

     

Acromioclavicular injury โ€” Acromioclavicular injury is labeled as a type I, II, III, IV, V, or VI, depending upon the extent of injury and number of ligaments involved. The type of injury can usually be determined with a physical examination and x-rays.

 

โ—Type I injuries involve a sprain or partial tear of AC ligaments with no injury to the CC ligaments. This causes a tender AC joint that often has mild swelling. Type I sprains usually heal within a few weeks.

 

โ—Type II injuries involve a complete tear of the AC ligaments and a sprain or partial tear of the coracoclavicular (CC) ligaments. This causes a tender AC joint, often with significant swelling (figure 2).

 

โ—Type III injuries involve a complete tear of both the AC and CC ligaments (figure 3). The AC joint will appear abnormal, although swelling may obscure the degree of injury. People with type III injuries have significant tenderness of the CC ligaments, which helps distinguish type III from type II injuries. Type III injuries often take longer to heal (several weeks to months).

 

โ—Type IV, V, VI injuries are the most severe. Treatment often requires surgery.

I can't believe the team is comfortable with it. The way MM is so vague and secretive, I doubt they want a reporter tweeting injuries just minutes after they happen. And what about HIPAA regulations? Are those waved for pro athletes?

Wild ass guess, but it smells like Eliot to me. That little monkey is learning the biz inside and out...just like the old man taught him. 

 

Son...don't be a fart in the wind. If the organization is going to have leaks...make damn sure they are your leaks.
