The Facts:
Boldin didn't suffer a simple facial fracture against the Jets on Sept. 28. The injuries were so extensive that it took eight plates to repair to them. In his first public comments since undergoing surgery on Oct. 2, Boldin said that he also had wires inserted in his lower jaw to correct his bite and that he suffered a concussion.

Boldin passed a concussion test last week and said he hopes to be cleared by his surgeon on Tuesday. The wires should be removed then, too. Boldin has been lifting weights and running routes and said he is hopeful of playing Sunday at Carolina. Boldin said he lost 10 pounds after the surgery, but has since regained it. He also mentioned that he avoids pain medication and dealt with the pain as best he could.
