A high ankle sprain does not fit the “Nick Bosa is injury-prone” narrative

Nick Bosa having elements of a high ankle sprain is dissapointing. There’s no way around it. And now that he’s out for the preseason (and possibly some of the regular season), the “Nick Bosa is injury-prone” narrative is back in full swing.

OK, easy there. This particular injury isn’t going to fit that narrative. Yes, the Bosas have a history of injuries and it’s been a concern. This isn’t going to prove either point.

Yes, Nick Bosa had his abdominal/groin injury in college. Yes, he tore his ACL in high school. Those injuries can support the narrative if you wish.
