The Facts:
Rather than the sprain initially reported, Leftwich broke a bone in his left ankle against the Cardinals. "He's got a crack in the ankle," Jack Del Rio said after the game. "The best-case scenario is about a month out, depending on how quickly he heals, and it could be worse. We just won't know until we see how the injury heals."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The injury occurred on the Jags' first offensive play. Leftwich stayed in the game for four more plays, then later was carted off the field for X-rays. The news that it was broken didn't come until Del Rio's postgame interview. ... David Garrard will continue to serve as the stater in Leftwich's absence.
