Stokley likely out

Brandon Stokley suffered an apparent ruptured Achilles tendon and is likely to be out for the rest of the season. I can't imagine a more frustrating season than the one Stokley has experienced. An ankle problem kept him out early, and after he came out of that, he suffered a knee injury. He has never been able to get in the lineup and get into the groove that he often has with Peyton Manning.

Stokley is one of the most open, approachable players in the locker room and it was hard to watch him struggle the last two games, dropping two balls he normally catches. But, this season seemed jinxed from the start. Let's hope he has a good recovery and comes back next season as the valuable receiver he is when he's healthy.
