Is recovery usually successful?

I had the procedure done when I was in the marines and my foot was fractured doing MCMAP. I was in a cast for 3 month then pins removed after that, then in a walking boot for another month. It still bothers me till this day, mostly dull numb pain, nothing crazy.

Taysom Hill @ BYU in 2016 - SI story

Julio Jones fractured his Lisfranc in the 2013 season. His next two seasons were career best at the time (albeit with Roddy White retiring) with 104/1593/6 in 2014 and 136/1871/8 in 2015.

Brian Westbrook injured his Lisfranc in 2005. His next two seasons were career best rushing 240/1217/7 and receiving 77/699/4 in 2006 and rushing 278/1333/7 and receiving 90/771/5 in 2007 while only playing 15 games each season.

Le’Veon Bell suffered a minor injury to his Lisfranc in 2013. His next two seasons he rushed 290/1361/8 and received 83/854/3 in 2014 and rushed 113/556/3 and received 24/136/0 over 6 games in 2015.

MJD injured his Lisfranc in 2012. He only played one full season after that and his production dipped by nearly 50% in 2013 when he rushed 234/803/5 and received 43/314/0.

Santonio Holmes severely injured his Lisfranc in 2012. The next season he had a sharp decline receiving 23/456/1 over 11 games in 2013. In 2014, he played less than 250 snaps and retired.

Cedric Benson injured his Lisfranc in 2012. He never played another snap after that.

Ronnie Brown injured his Lisfranc in 2009. He declined in 2010 by rushing 200/734/5 and receiving 33/242/0. He was relegated to backup duties in 2011 and never regained the job.

After a breakout year, Darren McFadden injured his Lisfranc in 2011. His next season he declined sharply rushing for 215/707/2 and receiving for 42/258/1.

After being drafted 9th overall in 2007, Ted Ginn Jr. injured his Lisfranc prior to his rookie season. He never reached his potential based on his college. Ginn played 14 seasons in the NFL, his career season high was in 2008 with 56 catches, and 790 yds.

Eric Decker had this same injury during his college career at Minnesota. He recovered full and had a decent NFL career, mainly with the Broncos.

Brandon Stokely suffered a LF injury in 2002 during his 4th yr in the League while playing for the Ravens. He went on to play 15 NFL seasons and retired in 2013.

Overall, it all comes down to the severity of the injury, how it is treated, and player’s ability to overcome injury setbacks. It can be a devastating injury if it is a severe case (Holmes) or mishandled (McFadden), but it is not a certain death-wish as seen by Julio, Bell, and Westbrook.
