As the New Orleans Saints and the Indianapolis Colts take the field on Sunday, many NFL fans will be curious to see if Dwight Freeney of the Colts will be playing in the Super Bowl.

On Sunday night the colts were describing the defensive end’s injury to his lower ankle just a sprain, but ESPN described him as having torn ankle ligaments. They also made it clear that it is a serious injury and may keep Dwight Freeney out of the Super Bowl. In any case, he will most likely be sitting out for the major practices leading up to the big game.

A sports injury expert named Will Carroll explained that if the injury is a Grade 3 ligament injury that means the ligaments in his ankle are 50% torn or more. He suspects that injury won’t heal quickly enough since it occurred not long ago, towards the ending of the AFC Championship Game. However, he also mentioned that he couldn’t imagine Freeney not playing.

Super Bowl XLIV will be played on Sunday February 7, 2010 at the Sun Life Stadium (formerly Dolphin Stadium) in Miami, Florida. See for yourself in person if Dwight Freeney’s injury will be enough to keep him out of the biggest NFL game of the year.
