Regardless of how bad "sprain" sounds, its the same injury that took Troy Polomalu out earlier this season and has ben extremely cautious of coming back

Speaking from someone who has sprained his MCL, I don't know where you are coming from saying that there can't be a sprain of that ligament.
As for the comparison to Polomalu, I think he range of motion needed to be a saftey is much much different than the range of motion for a QB.
