“It’s a little tight, but I’ll be OK. I just got an X-ray done,” he said in the locker room after the game, when he stood up slowly to address reporters. “That was the most important thing, making sure nothing was wrong with the spine.”
“I jumped up on that last play and I don’t know if I got twisted up wrong. I don’t know,” he said. “I just remember getting up and my lower back around the spine area was – I don’t know if you can understand where I’m coming from – it was about to catch. It was spasming a little bit and it felt like if I tried to run it was going to really catch and grab. I kind of came out high-kneeing, just trying to keep it loose. I tried to work it out and it just really wouldn’t get loose.”
“I’ll be ready to roll. You seen I came back out and scratched,” he said. “It’s going to be mind over matter and I know by Sunday that my back will be a lot better. I don’t care what percent I’m at, I’ll be out there playing.”
