May: How much time will he spend on the PUP list at training camp?

June: Will be cleared for full practice day one of training camp?

Now: How much will he play in the preseason games?

Amazing.

His recovery is unreal. I'm still going to cringe when he tucks and runs until I see him take a couple of shots and pop back up but I'm really excited that he will have a full camp.

It's crazy really but it also speaks to the nature of panic fueled by the media. I remember someone on here (I honestly don't recall who) that suggested in the days after the injury that the team should "sit him out the entire 2013 season as a precaution so he's 100% for 2014". 7 months of angst and hand wringing ultimately for nothing.
