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."

To be on the safe side I would send him back to the doctor who did the surgery to make sure all is well. I'm sure Pete is right that it is stiffness that many players start to develop during training camp but I would rather know for sure all is well with that toe.

I agree. I think they need to be overly cautious on this one.

I remember hearing a comedian say, ... "If I'm stiff for more than four hours, I'm not the one that is going to need the doctor.

I always thought that was funny.

I always said if I'm stiff for more than four hours, there's a few other calls I'm going to make first before I call a doctor.

Oh brother. I imagine we better cut this dude now, while we can, or trade him for everything we can now, before his value goes down, cause he's clearly a POS whose injury prone.

Not surprisingly the cut him thing has already come up.

F. Jones held out

Felix Jones was held out of Monday's morning practice with stiffness in his big toe. It's the same toe that put him on IR last year and required surgery.

Jones said no big deal, though. He said he's feeling fine and that he plans to practice this afternoon.

At any rate, it is something to keep an eye on. Felix is going to be a big part of the offense this season, so his health is critical.

Stiff Toe?

Won't be long before someone sits because of a broken nail.
