Felix Jones sat out most of team drills this morning because of stiffness in his surgically repaired left big toe.
"I don't foresee it being a problem," RB coach Skip Peete. "We're in training camp, two weeks in, and guys are getting sore and stiff and all that stuff."
Jones tore ligaments in the toe last season while rehabbing from a hamstring injury. He underwent surgery in November and didn't have any problems with the toe during OTAs. His minicamp was cut short because of a bruised thigh.
Peete said he wasn't sure whether Jones would practice this afternoon. That decision won't be made until Jones is evaluated by the team's athletic training staff.
"He's actually running fine," Peete said. "He just came back after one play and said he's stiff. That happens in camp."
