00:00Live right here on the early line on sports grid when the Sunday slate comes to a close

00:05We look back on the injuries that happened in any NFL weekend and what it means moving forward

00:10We do that here on this Monday on sports grid with the pro football doc. Dr. David Chow as always. Dr

00:16Chow, we appreciate the time on this Monday for your injury analysis and insight. Oh

00:22Thanks for having me. Good weekend of football and a lot of other activities from from Tyson Paul to

00:30UFC over the weekend lots of stuff a

00:33Lot of things going down right now here in the later portion of November. Dr. Chow

00:38Let's look back on some of the games yesterday and early on the San Francisco defense really stifling what Seattle wanted to do

00:45But when Nick Bosa left the game dealing with an oblique injury, that's when Seattle took advantage

00:51You know Smith 13-yard touchdown run to win it for the Seahawks in the final 15 seconds of

00:58Regulation. Dr. Chow, what did you and your team at Sports Injury Central see with the Nick Bosa oblique injury?

01:03What do you think the timeline is for the outstanding edge rusher for the 49ers moving forward?

01:09Well, look the bad news is it's the other side, right?

01:14And it's a new injury and this is why he couldn't continue

01:18Oblique where it inserts a little bit where we believe to be the hip flexor and it's his outside side if he's on the left

01:25Defensive end so that's not good news for the 49ers. Look going into the game at

01:31Sickpicks, we said take Seattle plus six and a half

01:35We weren't brave enough to take the money line

01:37But that's what we were saying and part of it think about this with Nick Bosa out other than Fred Warner

01:44Arguably the 49ers are missing their top five defensive players. Not not including Fred Warner

01:51I've seen Nick Bosa Javon Hargrave

01:54Stud D lineman Drake Green lost a lot from the Achilles

01:58Javarius Ward dealing with his personal tragedy and you can argue Joshua Funga

02:06That's been out for the season now. So that's a lot of players on the defensive side of the ball

02:12Take a look at the Green Bay Packers here doc. You look at Jair Alexander their top cornerback leaves with a knee injury

02:18They get a big win, but is Jair Alexander worried about missing multiple weeks or should be okay

02:23Well, it's been something he's been dealing with for quite a while now and he made it back but only partially

02:30So you have to think there's more absence and it wouldn't shock me at this point in time

02:35If he had a knee scope just to try and take care of whatever problem is there

02:39To get ready for the end of the season and or postseason so it remains to be seen how long he will be out

02:48Hmm other teams in the NFC North dog also winning yesterday the Detroit Lions improving to an NFC best nine and one

02:56But what are the anchors of their defense in a game where they were blowing out Jacksonville Alex Angeloni a broken

03:03Forearm, what exactly is the recovery process like dog? How long will Detroit be without of without one of its leading stars on defense?

03:13Well, you know you never want to have a break or a fracture of any kind and this one is going to be one that needs

03:19surgery

03:21Radius mishap forearm fracture the good news though is I think he's back sooner than people think this is not

03:28Aiden Hutchinson out for the season and even if they get the Super Bowl

03:32I think there's a reasonable chance

03:34Angeloni could return before the end of the regular season if the Lions needed him

03:40Look if it's the inconsequential week 1718 game why put him out there, but he definitely will be back for the playoffs

03:47remember Thomas Davis a handful of years ago

03:52With the Carolina Panthers both bone forearm fracture played in the Super Bowl in two weeks wasn't a hundred percent big old cast

04:01Yes, it was a Super Bowl towards the end of his career, but he did

04:04Angeloni, you know by the end of this regular season will be healthy enough to play. That's the only silver lining here

04:12Doc a couple quick hamstring injuries

04:14I don't know if one might be worse than the other Roquan Smith

04:17Baltimore's linebacker went down with a hamstring injury and also wide receiver

04:20Darnell Mooney of the Atlanta Falcons based on video was one worse than the other and what may be some

04:25Prognosis we can take a look at

04:27Well, it certainly is hard

04:30To judge the significance of hamstrings on video

04:33Does someone pull up just a minute before it tears badly and limp off because of it as a precaution or did they pull it?

04:40Badly, it's hard to say but it's gonna affect both of them Mooney as a speed guy

04:45Obviously, but at least he knows where he's going Roquan Smith's a sideline to sideline linebacker

04:50He plays in a smaller area of speed less important

04:53But still very important for him where he's gonna change directions and so forth accelerate decelerate

04:59So I think it's important for both these guys given the position they play

05:04Speaking of hamstring injuries doc

05:06Let's fast-forward to Monday night football in Dallas to end out week number 11 good news for the Texans

05:12Nico Collins set to return for the first time since week number five when he injured his hamstring and was placed on

05:20IR what can Houston and some of those offensive backers expect out of Nico Collins returning to the lineup tonight for the Texans? I

05:29Think he's a hundred percent. I think he could have played last week the Texans exercise caution there

05:35So I think he's a hundred percent. Will they still be a little cautious in the ramp up?

05:40Will there be a little bit of rust maybe but I don't think there's any issue with the hamstring

05:45Was really very mild and even in the beginning the injured reserve was a little bit of a surprise

05:52Taking a look at some defensive metrics here the defensive line quite banged up here for the Houston Texans

05:56But will Anderson certainly the highest profile one. How soon can we expect him back on the field as well doc? I

06:03Mean potentially next week. It's a high ankle sprain that he had a couple weeks ago in game

06:07It's a milder version, but still a big deal any high ankles a big deal

06:12I think he's close to returning but just not quite yet

06:16Doc on the other side of the football for the Dallas Cowboys, of course the injuries to Dak Prescott

06:21We know that is season ending outside of the quarterback spot when we look at the field view on

06:27SIC score calm that's six score calm. How do the Cowboys look relative to their health entering tonight?

06:34Well the big issue for the Cowboys, you know, they did get some defensive help by getting the comparisons back

06:40Although not a hundred percent

06:41but the biggest issue for the Cowboys all season has been in the

06:45Secondary with Duran plans still out and digs slow on his recovery

06:50And that's something that Houston will look to try and take advantage of on the defensive side of the ball

06:55And obviously it's Cooper rush and Dak Prescott out for the rest of the season

06:59But his recovery is very reliable for next season and if you're somehow some way Dallas made the playoffs

07:06He could come back, but that's a different story for a different time

07:10Yeah, three and six record probably going to stifle that but at least some optimism in

07:162025 for Dallas, Dr. Chow, we appreciate the time as always. We're on the early line next
