Negative Alabama repercussions post game. Excuses that I've heard

So today I heard on local Birmingham radio that Tua reinjured his ankle in the game. The guy reporting it covers the Tide locally and for the Athletic (Aaron Suttles). He said to not make a big deal over it and not go straight to social media. I couldn't tell if he was saying it for sympathy or if Tua is actually hurt because he came back too early. He also mentioned it's a possibility that Tua sits some in the upcoming games.
What say the rant?
I'll try to find the link. But the Montgomery paper is reporting he didn't hurt it any further. Guess we'll see if he sits out.
PS, I do not want to post this on the SEC rant and deal with the trolls.

He won’t play until Auburn. He may not play at all unless Bama makes playoff.

The Gumps don’t need Tua Turntheballova to beat the Cowbells or Western Carolina. We probably won’t see him again until the Iron Bowl.

Either a “so-so” Tua or the Jones kid vs the Auburn front 7 will have LOTS of problems. Game is in J-H Stadium, so I call Auburn in a very close win!

During the early fumble, Tua looked to have hurt the ankle when he was trying to plant to come back towards the ball.
I saw it in real time but after seeing the gifs of him fumbling away the Heisman trophy:
...so many times, you can really see it. It looks like he hurt it right there, or at least tweaked it pretty good.
I'm not making excuses for him, but it does look like more than just a "slip" right there. Really looks like that leg just completely buckled.

I don't have enough confidence in Bo Nix to call an upset by the War Eagles. They are at home though, really hope it happens.

Not sure why the down votes. I waited all day and no one posted it. I thought it was interesting that he said that on air.
This was by no means is a negative on lsu, I don't care if Tua was hurt or not. I just think it's funny to hear all of these excuses they continue to bring up.

I completely agree Auburn usually has decent luck in their stadium. Derrick Brown and Marlon Davidson should feast.

I wouldn’t be shocked if Tua sits out this week. Who do they play? Diesel Driving Academy?

Calling an Auburn win even if Tua sits for two more weeks.

Yeah at the Iron Bowl, they’re going to roll him out on a stretcher and perform fake CPR on him so he can “warrior” it out in that game too. Gotta get their excuse ready when they take another L.

Certainly not consistent with Saban’s comments today. He said that Tua was checked out by the doctors and that he was sore, but no injury. He.would be easing him back into practice over the next few days. So, accepting Saban at his word, Tua was not further injured in the game,
That said, I would be a bit surprised if he plays Saturday. He might play the next Saturday, but for a limited time just to keep him sharp for Auburn. But if Bama wants to make the CFP, they will need a big win over Auburn and some help elsewhere.

I say nothing other than that the game was played and is over.

There’s a better angle on here and if you know what causes a high ankle sprain (ankle eversion) you can slow it down and see that his ankle doesn’t bend in that manner during this play.
He does look like he doesn’t want to plant hard on it to change directions, but he slid with his ankle all the way straightened out which is a fairly safe position.
