The Facts: As recently as January, Floyd acknowledged that last season's neck injury might force him to "hang it up" and walk away from football. Six weeks after being cleared for light workouts, Floyd says he "definitely" will join teammates for voluntary workouts next week. "There wasn't a day where I considered I wouldn't be able to come back," Floyd said this week.
Diehards Line:
Floyd is running and working out, but he's yet to gain clearance for full contact. "I know that's going to take a lot of hard work but I am willing to do it," Floyd explained. "I am more excited for this year than ever before ... I missed just being able to do what a normal human being does. But now that I'm feeling normal, I feel myself getting into beast mode. I'm ready for the season to start. ..." That said, none of us should get too excited about his readiness for anything until he's medically cleared for full football activities.
