00:02 - Of course, we're going to be talking
00:03 about mobile quarterbacks like Deshaun Watson.
00:06 It always was his shoulder we were talking about,
00:08 but post-game in the press conference scene
00:09 in a walking boot.
00:11 Doc, tell us about what the walking boot does
00:12 to an ankle injury and Deshaun Watson saying,
00:14 "Don't worry about it, I'll be just fine."
00:17 - Well, you know, in game we talked about
00:19 how it was a left high ankle sprain
00:21 and it would be questionable
00:23 whether he could finish the game.
00:24 He showed a lot of toughness, he hopped around on it.
00:27 He might've gone and he went into the halftime early.
00:30 He might've gotten an injection to help him out.
00:32 Bottom line, he's finished the game.
00:34 They came back with a victory.
00:35 So good on Deshaun Watson and the Browns.
00:38 But a boot can be precautionary,
00:40 but in his case, likely necessary
00:42 with the high ankle sprain.
00:43 Now, before everyone says,
00:44 "Oh my gosh, high ankle sprain, doom and gloom."
00:47 Remember last year during the playoffs
00:49 versus Jacksonville, Patrick Mahomes
00:51 suffered a high ankle sprain
00:53 and yet played effectively the rest of the playoffs
00:55 and into the Super Bowl.
00:57 So there's different degrees of ankle sprains.
00:59 And remember in the end,
01:01 it's more about the arm than the legs for a quarterback.
01:06 So I do think Deshaun Watson will continue to play,
01:09 but I would fully expect some DNP or LP limited practice
01:13 this week leading into the next game.
