his surgeon knows him by first name. He's already done surgery on him three or four times at least. Um, so realistically, I think that was the same doc, Dr. Waldrip, same one that did Burrow. But in general, I'm not overly worried about his ankle. I think he'll be fine.

Ankle fracture recovery expected to be fine; surgeon knows him well with multiple prior surgeries.

Tagovailoa's ankle fracture was addressed surgically by Dr. Waldrip, the same surgeon who treated Joe Burrow's Achilles tear. The source is not overly worried about his ankle recovery and expects him to be fine, noting he has dealt with multiple surgeries before (Dr. Waldrip has already operated on him 3-4 times at least) and has had plenty of time to recover. The timing of the injury was unfortunate (mid-season rather than late season), but the source expects minimal long-term fantasy impact.
