Mason Rudolph Hurt His Ankle, Should be Fine for Bedlam
The rumors about No. 2 have been swirling in my DMs and email inbox since Saturday. Apparently, he’s going to be fine. Folks have noted that he was in a walking boot after Saturday’s clash with Baylor, but that’s not really that unusual. J.W. Walsh, for example, probably keeps two of them in his locker and throws them on after every practice and game.
“He got a little ankle sprain and he’s limited mobility-wise toward the end of the game,” Mike Gundy said on Monday about QB1. “But he still, I thought, handled himself well. He sat in there and threw the ball around and was pretty effective.”
Robert Allen noted that the injury probably took place on two consecutive plays.
It did not help that by the end of the game that Rudolph was trying to operate on a bum ankle or foot that appeared to be first aggravated on a late second quarter sack by the Bears Aiavion Edwards and then was further bothered on a sack the next play by Billings. On that particular play Billings fought through and bull rushed through center Brad Lundblade and guard Michael Wilson to cause Rudolph to be called for intentional grounding and he still hit the turf on the play.
Here are those plays.
As you can see in the photo at the top, Rudolph had his right ankle pretty heavily taped in the second half. As I noted in the game recap on Saturday, watching him sling it around late on Saturday night while struggling to walk on it was pretty cool. Couple of gamers we have at QB.
