Aaron Hernandez ankle not broken, but out up to six weeks | ProFootballTalk

this is good news IMO. He should be back by early November, perhaps after the London trip. i mean im not happy, but this is better than what it could have been.

We just have to get over the ravens and broncos. the rams may be tough since they have a good offense.

bring back branch or gaffney and hope for the best for the next two months.

"He’s the greatest quarterback to ever play the game. He goes from being a rookie that nobody is expecting anything from, to taking over with people saying he can’t do it, to winning three Super Bowls....It should already be obvious he’s the greatest quarterback to ever have played. "

going to suck without him...hopefully it's only 6 weeks. He still has to have a MRI tomorrow. I think we can beat Den without him especially at home. I have them losing next week regardless of if he was playing or not.


BTW how hurt is wilfork? I was at the game today and he got hurt early in the 4th..was limping bad but came back in the game i believe

Thankfully, we have the in-season IR. This will be our move. Deion Branch. Come on down! Wiflfork played on the final series after he got hurt. Should be ok. Gonna be a hostile environment next Sunday Night.

good news to hear, but we are going to have to pick up another WR for the next 6 weeks while he is out....give branch or gaffney a call maybe?

Hmmm, guess I'll burst your bubble since no one else has: We already used that on Shaineco, or however you spell it. Hernandez will be an inactive on gameday's for the next 6 weeks or going to IR for the season.

If I am not mistaken the Patriots already used the in-season IR on Visanthe Shiancoe, so they don't get an extra roster spot.

I think 3-4 weeks.

Update on Patriots TE Aaron Hernandez' Injury

Some good news following Sunday’s injury to Aaron Hernandez, it appears that for now he’s at least not lost for the season.


According to WBZ Hernandez suffered a high ankle sprain and x-rays were negative, which was at least a good sign. He was later seen by reporters on crutches and in a walking boot, but hopefully this means that he’ll at least be back later in the season....

New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez is expected to miss a few weeks due to his injured right ankle, a source told ESPN.com.
Hernandez's absence would force the Patriots to adjust without one of their best offensive weapons. There is not an exact timetable for Hernandez's return, but the star tight end will not play against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 3, the source said.
According to the source, Hernandez likely will not return until October at the earliest.
