I don't think he has fully recovered from injury or at a minimum, is not in game shape. He looks tentative. For his sake, I hope this is the case. If this is his new normal, it doesn't bode well for his future or ours.

He’s in game shape. That was his third game back.

I saw him favoring the leg he injured last year.. I don’t think he has much confidence in it quite yet..kind of playing not to get injured again.. he was mauled by the Arky center quite a few times.. sometimes pushed back 8-10 yards off the line of scrimmage

Definitely not 100%. I think the ankle is more of a problem than they let us know. Watched him on the sideline and he was getting looked at a couple times.

Was the ankle on the same side as the knee injury?

This.

Medicine has advanced a lot over time, but that still was a major injury that takes time. And it's just as difficult to mentally recover than it is to physically recover.
