Yahoo Sports NFL on De'Zhaun Stribling

Stribling's deltoid ankle sprain could sideline him 3-4 months if surgery needed.

De'Zhaun Stribling suffered a deltoid ligament ankle sprain that requires more force to damage than typical ankle sprains, resulting in more trauma; most deltoid sprains heal on their own with at least a month of sidelining, but if surgery is required, recovery lasts three to four months, sidelining him for most or all of the regular season. His stability will be determined by how the fibers heal; if they heal stretched out or without enough support, surgery becomes likely.
