Arsis Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Or... force him back before he's ready. Is he ready and they're just being cautious and bringing him along slowly? Or are they rushing him back because gb is scary? It's a professional team with a professional medical staff so I am going to assume it's the former.

It's a professional team with a professional medical staff so I am going to assume it's the former. It makes a ton of sense to bring him along slowly, regardless of where he's at physically. At the very least, he's gonna be rusty, no reason to throw him right into the fire - especially with Allen and Walls coming off a good game. Bring him in in nickel & dime situations, see how he feels and see how he performs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanInDenver Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Given the position he plays and what i have heard about the nature of High Ankle Sprains I would have preferred if they waited one or two additional weeks to bring him on. Lets hope he is used very sparingly. Maybe just dime packages. Or he is on a pre determined snap count. We will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a professional team with a professional medical staff so I am going to assume it's the former. The Falcons rushed Roddy White back last year. "Professional" doesn't mean stupid-proof.

JustInFudge Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 My hope is that he's fully healed, but a little behind on conditioning. Probably this. He's apparently been walking bootless with no limp for a while. There is only so much conditioning that a bike gives. Real game, real hitting, completely different ball game. Throw him a taste here and there...he'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlife33 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I think it's smart to ease him back in. He's been practicing all week without any setbacks so I assume his ankle isn't swelling, should be good to go but might as well ease him into it instead of throwing him out there all game long.

TJ Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Dime packages could be half the snaps. I would prefer they waited until fully healed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 He's healthy enough to play, not in shape to play every snap. Pretty easy solution to just ease him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouisvilleSlugger25 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 just sit him. bears WR's much scarier Then next week you will say just sit him for the Lions game and Calvin Johnson. Maybe wait until the week after and Keenan Allen or the week after that and Demayrius Thomas or the week after that and the Patriots. In the end, he has to come back some time. I have a feeling that if last weeks game against the Raiders was a playoff game he would have started. Jets probably held him out because he knew the Raiders were awful on Offense. The packers are a different story. Cobb and Nelson are very good. Bringing him back to play 20-50pct of the snaps is the prudent way of handling it. If they waited a week he would be rusty for Alshon and Marshall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilkshake69 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I think that this is the right decision. Assuming he is healthy enough to play, and he is now within the time frame for which he was expected back, then he should be eased back into the lineup. An underrated aspect of this injury is that it prevented Milliner from building up any level of conditioning during training camp. Considering all of the teams we saw dragging ass in the Week 1, I would say bringing Milliner along slowly so he gets his wind back is a much better idea than simply throwing him out there for the whole game and getting burnt late...

Jetmech Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I heard Rex say his ankle can't get any worse as its just about the pain threshold. If it bothers him they'll just pull him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
