Lehan gets good news, will only miss 4-6 weeks

The Palm Beach Post provides us with some good news, courtesy of Michael Lehan's agent:

Dolphins cornerback Michael Lehan will be out only four to six weeks, his agent told The Palm Beach Post. Based on the ugly way Lehan’s ankle was bent while he writhed on the turf, that’s incredibly good news for the secondary.

Domann was traveling and said he didn’t have specifics on the injury.

“To my knowledge, it doesn’t appear to be as severe as it must’ve looked,” Domann said.

This is very good news, as it seemed Lehan, who was injured earlier today, had suffered a catastrophic injury.

With a 4 to 6 week timetable, I'd imagine the injury is something like a high ankle sprain.  But I suppose we'll find out more in the coming days.

The bottom line, though, is that if Lehan is healthy in 4 to 6 weeks, he'd be ready for the beginning of training camp in late July.

[UPDATE] The injury to Lehan is actually a dislocated right ankle.  So if anyone has ever had the same injury, feel free to let us know how long it took to recover and other info about your experience.

Dislocated ankle

I broke my ankle, dislocated it, and broke my femur all at the same time while playing hockey and I was walking on it after about 4 weeks with my cast on. I had no pain at all and I was not very careful while I had my cast on lol. I fell down a few times and walked on my cast all the time, which obviously was not the smartest thing. Im sure with the doctors and trainers working with him, Lehan will be just fine in 5 weeks time.

LOL!

No, I wish! Just me trying to prove to people that I was fine haha.

In all seriousness though, it is not that bad. Lehan will be just fine. I didn’t even have to go to rehab, just needed to remember how to walk without looking like a JETS fan…
