Or maybe it was the opposite and they are confirming the first opinion. If the first guy says, take 4-6 weeks off and it's worse then you just ruined your best defensive player if you rush him back.
Our schedule the next 4-8 weeks:
9/18 vs Pats
9/22 @ Browns
10/2 vs Jets
10/9 @ Bills
10/16 vs Bucs
10/23 @ Dolphins
10/30 @ Eagles
BYE
At this point if it is not season ending I could see them sitting him through the BYE just to be safe. The only game I wanted him in was against Brady to pound his head into the turf but I guess Heyward and company will have to do that without him.
