The Facts:
A doctor’s second opinion on the TE’s broken right ankle Tuesday gave Cooley hope that he can return to the field in a month. The two-time Pro Bowl player will have surgery Wednesday, and he gave details via his Twitter feed: “3 pins go in the ankle tomorrow. Hopefully be back in 4 weeks. Thanks for all the support.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Earlier Tuesday, HC Jim Zorn said Cooley would be sidelined a minimum of six to eight weeks and would probably be placed on season-ending injured reserve. But Zorn also said Cooley was awaiting a “final evaluation” from another doctor to make sure. ... Four weeks sounds mighty optimistic, but it does leave room for hope that Cooley could return.
