There is no possible way to know this. Plenty of players play with bum ankles, and I'm not reading about displaced hips every week.
I guess there is no way to know for sure that Tua's ankle injury led to this injury, but it is a completely logical thought and very possible.
And Tua's ankle was bad enough that he got surgery for it. This wasn't a little ankle thingy.

Then why don't we see it more? Plenty of people play after injuring their ankle, yet this isn't exactly a common injury.

Yup, which is why people like LesterEarl are idiotic for trying to relate an uninjured player in the same situation.
Tua was not right and they had a comfortable lead. It was Miss St. No reason to risk more potential injuries for a player that is more at risk for injury than others.. and has a history..

There is a logical train of thought there, but the point the guy you quoted made is still valid. There's no way to know for sure, and I'm surprised that a licensed physician would go out on a limb and say that one definitely led to the other.
All you can really say is that the likelihood was higher than if he'd not had the injury.
