Any update on Anderson?

Curious if there’s any news out there. Hopefully he’s fine. Could be another situation like what we did when we went to Texas and sat Peasley as a precaution?
 
Anderson is expected to play Saturday and return to practice today according to Sawvel. Very surprising considering he had to go to the hospital but maybe it was just a precautionary measure.
 
Bruised "organs"? But cleared to play this Saturday against the Utards?
Pure speculation on my part, but based on the way the hit occurred and the way he carried himself afterward, he may have some bruised/strained intercostal muscles.

On the field, it would be very difficult to discern between an intercostal muscle injury and rib/collar bone break. Hence the hospital visit for X-ray or CT.

If it is in fact an intercostal muscle injury, he will definitely be sore and would have some range of motion issues for a short period of time. A good trainer/physical therapist could have him game ready within a week. He might not feel the greatest on Sunday morning, but he shouldn’t be risking any significant additional damage by playing.

Any idea if his throwing motion would be affected if that is the injury? Also what about possible re-injury?

It’s possible, but probably not to any significant extent. Especially with the way Sawful has talked about the injury, I doubt there are many lingering issues come Saturday.

Reinjury risk is low. It’s basically a bruise of the muscles in between the ribs. They are sore and tender, but still fully functional.
