The way he was limping but still moving on it made me think it might just be a sprain, but I dont know poo poo. I did sprain my knee once in jv and for two days I couldnt even limp on it, but I was fine in like a week.

It doesn't mean much, a lot of guys walk off on torn ACLs. Eric Berry played a few snaps on a fully torn one in the Buffalo game from like 4 years ago

Technically speaking a tear is a sprain. But a sprain isn't necessarily a tear.

"Sprain" is my favorite medical term behind "contusion."

I dunno ...Jamaal would be helpful, i think they are discussing moving Frank Zombo to ILB which isn't a terrible idea

Zombo pretty consistently plays above his paygrade. If he can move inside and be a run-stopped, I would be very happy.

Also, hey, want to read about what it's like to work for Bill Belichick?

https://www.masslive.com/patriots/index.ssf/2016/12/bill_belichick_patriots_coachi.html

quote:

"The 20/20 deal," said Patriots tight ends coach Brian Daboll. "Twenty hours a day for 20 grand a year. ...

Its essence: Entry-level coaching assistants are responsible for weekly breakdowns of the upcoming opponent, handed in to Belichick more than a week in advance of the game so he can use them as reference points as he conceives a strategy. Offensive assistants focus on the opponent's defense. Defensive assistants focus on the offense. Both focus on details so insignificant that you'd think Belichick was playing a prank on these kids.

Phil Savage, who worked as a coaching assistant in Cleveland under Belichick, remembers logging the direction in which the quarterback turned his head prior to each snap.

For many years, these breakdowns were recorded on what Belichick called "the pads." Coaching assistants would diagram each play, illustrating receiver splits, depth of routes, depth of the halfback behind the quarterback, alignment of the defensive players, shades of the defensive linemen, the protection of offensive line. Notations for each category were made at the top of the page.

"There was a box and a location to put it down, and then you had to draw each play by hand," said McDaniels, a coaching assistant from 2001-03. "And I'm not talking about a rough drawing. I'm talking about a drawing that would take you 10 minutes."

Between the identification of scheme and detail, each play could take as long 20 minutes to diagram in full. Each game had 50-70 plays on each side of the ball. Each coaching assistant had three breakdowns per week.

Its a good thing its only a sprain so that the Dolphins can rush Tannehill back out there too quickly and guarantee a full tear when he eats a sack

I mean considering how coaches work in general, making them work absurd days seems fine to me, but... why the gently caress would you pay them nothing? There's no salary cap, offer higher pay so you can get the other aspie weirdos who don't have families that can support them too.

Football teams are notoriously stingy organizations. It doesn't make any sense. But they are.
