Chiefs 2007: LJ could be out a while. Possible long term injury? - Page 6

**BigRedChief** · 11-05-2007, 06:31 PM

Consider this a rumor.
Again I'm not saying this is fact but someone who has told me medical "stuff" about Chiefs players in the past and it has turned out to be true told me this.

LJ has a garden variety sprained ankle but thats not worrying the Chiefs or LJ.

They think its his foot thats is the real concern and specifically worst case scenerio Plantar Fasciitis or a pulled ligment in the foot. It happened when LJ tryed to pull on his foot when it was under Hawk and stretched that muscle on the bottom of his foot and in the arch. It could take 3-4 weeks of rest or in rare cases to a year to recover. But until the swelling goes down they won't know for sure.

Again just FYI passing it along.

Probably. Fortuitous that it happened this way I suppose.

If he has even a mild plantar fasciitis injury, he'll be out the rest of the year, IMO.

Or at minimum, ineffective. Putting weight on it is hard enough, but pushing off and cutting would be excruciating.

BS. You can fight through plantar fasciitis. All it takes is tape and they even make neoprene supports for it. It is painful but it is bearable. Especially with the painkillers they take before a game.

Foot sprain could keep Chiefs RB Larry Johnson sidelined
By DOUG TUCKER, AP Sports Writer
November 5, 2007

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Larry Johnson spent Monday undergoing treatment and tests on his injured right foot amid fears Kansas City's Pro Bowl running back could be sidelined for an extended period...."

Good to see they read the Planet.

I read on Warpaint last week that LJ's injury was the Plantar Fasciitis. Sometimes that place amazes me.

I have it on good authority... by which I mean I heard it on the radio... that LJ severed his pinky toe and will announce his retirement on Tuesday.

His immediate plans are to become co-owner of the bed and breakfast that Trent Green opened after a blood clot forced him to retire before the 2005 season. Priest Holmes, who retired 2 years ago after discovering a spinal tumor, wasn't available for comment.

This is reminding me of the Trent injury debacle last year...gonna be some funny posts to dig up when LJ gets back.
