He just had a month off and was obviously still hurt.  The combine is two months from now.  Is that enough time to heal so that he can blow the doors off?

My guess, no. These high ankle sprains take a long time to heal.

Does he need to be healed to blow the doors off?

Hard to say. Stamina isn't important in the combine, but raw speed will be for Love. The real question is, is it worth the risk and what are the other strategies? My opinion, based on nothing, is that if Love comes back, it will just be because he wants to, not because he has some idea it will help him in the draft a year from now. Too many variables and risk factors to really know if returning will help.

Are NFL teams worried about this injury?

Obviously, I don't know, they don't keep me informed.  :) Unfortunately, there isn't a lot Love can do about it if they are concerned. His size is already an issue, so injury just adds questions.
