The Facts:
Following up on the ongoing story. ... There are reports that Stafford has a Grade Two right shoulder separation and could miss four to six weeks. However, on a WDFN-AM (1130) in Detroit this morning, Dr. Stan Sczecienski of Garden City Hospital said there might be evidence that Stafford's injury could sideline him for just a week or two.

Per MLive.com's Tom Kowalski, Sczecienski, who does not treat Stafford, said two pieces of information lead him to believe the injury might be a shoulder contusion instead of a separation. One, replays show that Stafford got hit on the side of his shoulder and, two, Stafford himself said there was no injury to the labrum (Sczeacienski said injury to the labrum is normally an indication of a separation). Stafford is expected to visit noted surgeon Dr. James Andrews this week for a second opinion. Again, multiple reports say that Stafford will miss 4-6 weeks. ... Stay tuned. We'll continue to follow up as needed.
