The Facts: Jurevicius won't play in 2008 but said Monday he plans to return to the field in 2009. "I'm here to let the city of Cleveland now that I'm not retiring," Jurevicius said. "I know I have a lot of gas left in the tank. I am walking off the football field with an orange helmet on my head and not with a pair of jeans on."
Diehards Line:An 11-year veteran, Jurevicius said he's had six procedures on his knee since the 2007 season ended. He said he's "pretty far" from returning right now but will continue to work towards returning next season. "Optimism-wise, I'm 110 percent that I'm playing football in 2009," he said.
