The #Saints  received unexpectedly good news following the foot surgery for first-round OT Trevor Penning: Rather than miss all of 2022, Penning has a chance to be ready by early Nov., sources say. At the least, he'll be able to practice, at the most could be key down the stretch.

Looks like around week 9, which would be Nov 7 against the Ravens. Good time to have a possible key player come back in the lineup. Good to hear he’ll be able to get more development his rookie year

Thank God! I honestly didn't expect him back this season. We needed some good news.

This is by far the best scenario that could have been hoped for.

That would be just about the best case scenario but I would be shocked if he was already back in the lineup by Nov 7th. I’d guess late November if everything goes well. Let him take it slow for a few weeks at practice

Yeah unless we have guys hurt on the line I don’t think they will rush him back.

4-6 weeks would have been better but "early" November is better than nothing assuming we can muster up a playoff run.

How long has MT13 been on track to return?

Not really sure what this has to do with the topic but MT13 will be in the lineup week 1

There is no way to truly determine a lisfranc injury. I bet November is the goal but that little bone in your foot when you are that big is a major issue to deal with. This is not an injury you rush and take chances with.

To be fair (to your point of waiting until he walks out the tunnel) I recall MT coming back on track, based on when he finally had the surgery, he just had a reinjury in the week leading up to his return that shut him down for the rest of the season.

There was also a player a few years ago that was dressed and ready to go coming back from injury, but his pregame warmups determined he wasn't ready and was out another 2 weeks. Don't recall who it was, but it was a big deal

In case you haven't noticed this is a very violent sport and injuries are all a part of it. The coaches, players, people who have played the game and the majority of fans know this.
The occasional fan who only puts down their video controller to suck their thumb has a hard time dealing with this.
I believe at this point most people know that MT messed up by try to avoid surgery by rehabbing on his own but I don't think any teammates or coach believe that he purposefully sat on his arse to avoid playing.

We are going to definitely need him down the stretch, this is great news.

Michael Thomas has absolutely nothing to do with this topic.

Correct. MT has nothing to do with this thread. My comment was about the legitimacy of injury reporting. "Reports" had MT week to week for what felt like an entire season. We all hope the Penning timeline is legit. Just don't pencil him back in the lineup for the first week of Nov yet.
