I'm hearing that he broke his ankle when he caught his feet caught up with a DB . If so, he could be out for quite a while....majority of season if not, the entire season.
Was headed for a redshirt either way. But now he is going to be 2+ years removed from football which can't be easy on him.
However, bony injuries at this age are typically much, much better than soft tissue ones. They hurt more up front, but the bones heal so well that there won't be as many long term issues. Sucks, but he'll be okay.
