how would disabled anthro ears work?

hi this may be a really weird request
i have a character (no art of her unfortunately) that is an anthro wolf person. i want to keep her anatomy pretty accurate and believable to a wolf
however i had this idea so that she has paralyzed ears (for lore reasons), which would keep themselves pointing down, which resulted from a head injury
the thing is i dont know how itll work or if it even would make sense. i know ears in general are made of cartilage so they dont really have muscles or any nerves that wouldlead to the ears getting paralysis. would i need to make it so both ear tendons (or whatever makes the ear move in the first place) somehow get slashed pr otherwise become immobile?
as you may be able to tell idk much of anatomy so this may turn into a biology lesson instead ;/
