Do you anticipate playing in the game on Saturday?
“Definitely. I’m going to keep working throughout the week and give it a go on Saturday.”

Were you able to figure out what caused the irritation in your knee?
“We tried some different things. It’s just a matter of resting it. The volume of work the first couple of days, I guess it was just a little too much for it. I’m just working my way back in, and like I said, it feels good.”

Do you think it’s going to be an injury that lingers throughout the season?
“It’s just going to be a matter of managing it and getting it football-ready. Going from a lot of straight line running and lifting, it’s totally different when you get on the field and start running routes. You get your body in situations you really can’t train for. I’m transitioning back into that and it shouldn’t be an issue moving forward.”

Now that you’re back and Tracy Porter is back from injuries, do you feel like the team is getting all of its weapons back and everything is coming together?
“Definitely. We had a lot of injuries last year and just to get everyone back on the field together and healthy is going to be huge for us.”
