Geez... hip pointers are rough... he'll be fine in two weeks though. What's your source on Swain missing a few games?

Hope he gets enough rest and comes back for Bama game. Big guy makin' big plays.

High ankle sprains take some time to get over. We really need to get Swain back for LSU.

 

[jakez4ut]

two full weeks for treatment...he may be back for Bama..you never know.

glad to hear about mcbride.

High ankle sprains are tough, but Swain is a true gamer. If I had to put money on it, I'd bet that he plays against Bama.

I was watching the Sport Source this morning on ABC and Jimmy Himes was on there reporting the two injuries

Update:

Injury Update: In addition to defensive tackle Turk McBride (hip pointer) and receiver Jayson Swain (ankle), Sears missed UT's last series Saturday with an injured toe.

None of the injuries appear serious, Fulmer said, and the Vols have two weeks to heal before Alabama.

"When you've got a receiver with an ankle injury, that's not a good thing," Fulmer said. "But I think Jayson will work hard and get himself ready."
