Grass is still turf, man. The steak part of a surf n turf isn't grown on field turf….
"The simplest definition of turf toe is that it is a sprain of the main joint of the big toe. The injury happens when the toe is forcibly bent up into hyperextension, such as when pushing off into a sprint and having the toe get stuck flat on the ground."

To help plan treatment for turf toe, doctors grade the injuries from 1 to 3 — mild to severe.
  • Grade 1. The plantar complex has been stretched, causing pinpoint tenderness and slight swelling.
  • Grade 2. A partial tearing of the plantar complex causes more widespread tenderness, moderate swelling, and bruising. Movement of the toe is limited and painful.
  • Grade 3. The plantar complex is completely torn, causing severe tenderness, severe swelling, and bruising. It is difficult and painful to move the big toe.
  • TREATMENT
  • Grade 2. To keep the MTP joint immobilized, the doctor may prescribe a walking boot to wear for up to a week, if needed. Afterwards, these injuries are managed with a taping regimen and the Grade 1 treatments discussed above. In most cases, an athlete with a Grade 2 injury needs 3 to 14 days of rest before returning to play.
  • Grade 3. These more severe injuries are most often treated with immobilization for several weeks. The athlete may wear a walking boot or be put in a cast that keeps the big toe in a partially pointed down position. As the injury heals, treatment will gradually step down to Grade 2 and then to Grade 1.

I played football for 10 years and wrestled for 3, never got athletes foot.

I used the gym showers for many years after High School, and only once, about 6 years ago did I accidentally step on the ground without my sandals.

Till this day my toes itch...

Hope it's really minor. They interviewed him after the game and there was no indication he had anything wrong.

I don't think it's minor. He left the stadium in a toe truck.
