Former Florida State and current Philadelphia Eagles safety Ronald Darby suffered a nasty-looking injury against the Washington Redskins on Sunday. Fortunately, the injury isn't as bad as initially thought. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport is reporting that it should be a maximum of six weeks for him to be out:

#Eagles CB Ronald Darby is out 4-6 weeks with an dislocated ankle, sources say. No major ligament damage. Surprisingly good news.

Darby is likely pretty lucky to be missing a month or six weeks. That injury looked a whole lot worse than just a month's work of recovery. Before getting traded to the Eagles, Darby had appeared in 29 of 32 possible games for the Buffalo Bills.
