Torn ligamen in his ankle. Unsure which one pending the MRI!

Yea. They did do an x-ray and there were no fractures. Gotta be ligaments.

Well although it is still bad that he got hurt he should hopefully be back up to full speed by the time the first game comes around.

My concern about Murtha's injury is his weight. When these huge offensive linemen injure their legs or ankle's it is common for them to gain a lot of weight. Lydon may heal up nicely in time for the season to start, but he may come back 25 pounds heavier.

Better keep his a$$ on the bike!! I hope he can bounce back quickly from this and be 100% by fall.
Murtha is the one lineman I wouldn't be worried about putting on too much "bad" weight. The dude is ripped and has never been fat by any means. He is the only lineman I have ever seen with 6-pack abs, just a freak physical specimen. Now, if he could just up his intensity, he would be a great lineman for us.
Here's to hoping for a quick and full recovery.
