Montez Sweat Nursing Non Displaced Jaw Fracture, Managing Diet Can Be Tricky

The stud Washington pass rusher is currently dealing with a non displaced jaw fracture. The good news is it does not require surgery, however this type of injury needs approximately a month of no contact. In more significant cases, the jaw is wired shut which provides more nutritional eating difficulties. This does not seem to be the case but certainly diet, weight and keeping in football shape over the next few weeks for a faster return to play is a potential issue. Jaw fractures need to be treated on an individual basis. The issues of food intake can sometimes be tricky to manage meaning Washington must make sure Sweat is ready to return to football physically when able.
