Its not the same problem he had before. This stems from his ankle getting kicked against NYRB.

I can’t believe how the same people here who idolize Osorio, want to rag on Altidore. The later is a bigger hero in TFC than any other player in team history, who should have his number retired, a banner raised, and a dedicated chant, for everything that he has done. Jesus.
Bradley has looked poor because he's played the majority of it out of position this season
losing Jozy would severely set the team back. He and Gio have superb synergy. Plus he's my wife's favorite player.
I am a huge fan of Oso. He's had a breakout year and really stepped up. A bit worried about the contract though. But lets hope that he continues his excellent contribution offensively.
Those moments were amazing. I am watching them over and over again. The hardest thing in soccer is to score, normally. A team takes great risks by giving up on that ability. Look how hard it was for us to score before Jozy and Gio came. After, particularly with VV, we were unstoppable.
Well it looks like Jozy could be done for the season.

Shutting him down would read like confirmation that they intend to keep him next year, IMO. I'd be happy if that were the case.
I think it's an odd thing for Vanney to be musing about. It’s blindingly obvious that they should just shut him down if they have the slightest reason. He should just be shut down, end of.
Makes me a bit more suspicious that they are talking insurance settlement, and just letting him go. Like Frings.
“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
An insurance payout would only be made if he retired, no?
I believe that would the case, they are paid out when the player is faced with a career ending injury. Remember when Bryan Berard had what many considered a career ending eye injury, he recieived a $6.5 million settlement. After missing a season he made a comeback thus returning the settlement money.

This team attempted to play an entire season with Zavaleta at CB. How is this acceptable?
I think the “Zavaleta is here because he is Vanney's nephew” stuff is crap, and a cheap shot at both of them.
Zavaleta was a huge part of our success in 2017. He was consistently good. Started most of our games. Made plays. I don’t know what happened to him in 2018 ... but it's not like he took minutes from somebody else. We had nobody else.
Do you really think Bez or Manning would tolerate anyone favouring a relative for any reason?
Do you really think Vanney is that guy?
Honestly. It's been a tough year, but let's not do this.
“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
He started 27 in 2017, they won the treble and the defence was solid. This year he got exposed and looked real bad on a number of occasions but that was true of the whole group. If the salary cap allowed for it, I'd prefer to see another CB brought in but I'm guessing we are up against its so figuring out how to put Zavs in a position where he can perform like he did in 2017 is key, better health for Moor and Mavinga would go a long way.
No Moor today indicates to me they are thinking of VDW as part of a 3 man CB rotation for next season. I'd be OK with that.
Front 3 of Chapman Seba & Janson might be something we see next season too if Jozy is gone & Vasquez is resting.

So just watching the LAFC Whitecaps game , LAFC made a key pickup when they picked up Lee Nguyen who was sitting out the first few weeks of the season stating he wanted to leave New England why didn’t TFC try to pick up Nguyen a proven MLS midfielder one of the better ones in the MLS? Instead TFC went and spent about the same money it would have cost to get Nguyen to go get that useless piece of crap that was Akextche or whatever the hell that waist of space’s name was!
The whole team including mgmt, showed their inexperience by failing to understand the normal let down in the season following a championship . They were frozen and it seems no one had a critical eye . I would like to pick up kie Kamara , if any of the biggies leaves . Very versatile. Crazy as it seems I think he would have been a better fit for Sebastian . I didn’t say he was better than Josie , just more versatile.
