They had to by today. Or call him done for the season.

Well that changes my line of thinking then.

Being that they must give him a try you never know what kind of shape he is in. Although I read a month or so ago he was in 'football' shape but that's speculative. I linked the article in a post about it a while back and I don't feel like digging for it.

EDIT: found it
