Morgan Officially placed on IR according to 49ers.com

Sucks Morgan got hurt, hope a speedy recovery for him!

How long does it take a broken ankle to heal?I broke my ankle on July 4th , casted on July 9th and have had signficant swelling ever since. When I get up to fix lunch or anything for more than 5 minutes, my foot swells and turns blue. I went back to dr. and had them cut cast down the sides to relieve some of the pressure but it is still happening. Is this normal? how long do I need to stay off of it?

At Least 6 weeks to heal
If you have not called your doc and told them you continue to have swelling problems, you need to do so, pronto.

Broken ankles take at least 6 weeks to heal, and after that it can take several months to be able to return to sports or other physical activity. Swelling is not unusual, and it isn't unusual to have to have a cast removed, or have a temporary splint of some sort until the swelling goes down. Elevating your leg can help the swelling.

Donny avery?? For a patch job?

Morgan is done for the year. Stupid play call. Great game ends with a -

He's been a #2.

lol, not a big loss? leading wr in yards, making big plays, a #2 WR, playing like a #1.

I say do right, and extend him

And Rogers and Walker.

#3? Hmm..come on now, give CaptainM his props.

I would sign Ziegler, we get Edwards back soon, Morgan maybe back the last couple games before the playoffs---let go Brock or put Norris on IR.

Why would Harbaugh said it wasn't that bad then he is out 6-10 weeks? It doesn't make any sense.

I assume it's just because Morgan told him it was cooling off. Usually a break almost hurts more and more as the adrenaline wears off, whereas a sprain usually calms down a bit.

So Ginn fills in, Kyle Williams gets bumped up, Hunter will probably take over return duties, and we'll need to sign or activate someone.

Put Adam Snyder at WR.

No way done for the year. My ankle took 4 weeks and I was back on the baseball field. And that was a full break.

I really think it would be such a good move if we signed Owens, he is getting healthy & is motivated....plus when is the last time he had a problem in a city that he played for? If he lasted in Buffalo and Cincy without issues I certainly see him doing well here as well. Get well soon Morgan

terrell owens come on down

Well, Alex Smith is already married, so he can't call him gay, so there is that...
