The Facts: After undergoing surgery on his left foot that forced him to miss six weeks of offseason practices, Curry returned to his usual spot at receiver this week for the Raiders. Curry said he had trouble planting on the foot before the operation, but says he is now running pain free with six weeks before training camp starts.
Diehards Line:Curry had his seasons shortened by injuries to his Achilles' tendons in both 2005 and '06, hindering his development as an NFL receiver after playing quarterback in college. But he led the team with 55 catches for 717 yards and five touchdowns last season and is being counted on again heavily this season.
