I have always thought the same thing.
The fiblua is not a significant weight bearing part of the leg. With his old tibia fracture he was out for the season. If the ankle area is stable and the fibular fracture not displaced he could be back and strong in eight or less weeks.
Right on. Spoken by someone who obviously knows what they are talking about! If you have to break something in your leg, a nondisplaced fibular fracture is what to chose.

Eric Heitmann, out 6 to 8 weeks with broken fibula, is very upbeat. "I'm a fast healer," he said. "I'll be around to help the younger guys."

I'm all for it. I'm not comfortable with any players on our team filling in for Heit.
I'm really bummed about this injury. Especially cuz I'm going to the 49ers Saints game

Could have been a lot worse. A knee injury could have been ACL and MCL tears.
Heitmann will be back by the week 2 the latest.
