La’el Collins did not play the second half of the Bears game from what was being called a foot sprain, we now know the extent of the injury and it is not good. Reports are saying it is a torn ligament in his foot.
According to Ian Rapoport Collins could be out 6-10 weeks:

Ron Leary will fill in, and you can’t forget about using him as trade bait. This is why you keep players of value like Leary. He’ll now have the opportunity to put good tape for potential suitors at the end of the year, and you never know, could Dallas keep Leary.
We’ll see how this injury affects Collins now. I hope he makes a full recovery and comes back strong, we need him.
