We put him through a couple extensive workouts and he handle it very well. This is the first time he's kicked two days in a row. We feel good about him. We feel he'll be OK for Monday night.
I didn't listen to the whole interview, obviously. I don't think any of us did. I take care of those things in-house. I don't take it out to the public and do that. You guys know that. That's the way I'll handle this. It'll be in-house business. I obviously will address the player and those people that I need to talk to, and we'll work this thing out.
Donovan handled the clock very well. He battled through some early throws. He was a little bit tight in the pelvis area and he battled through that thing like the warrior he is. He just came up with some huge throws in the second half. That basically tells you the whole story of Donovan McNabb right now.
You don't let it be a distraction. That is not what you do. There are going to be things that happen and you don't focus on those things. You focus on getting the football team ready to play and you handle the other things up front the way we do it.
We'll handle this situation in-house, just like we always have. You guys know that.
I don't second-guess those things, ... If T.O. was available, I'd bring T.O. here. That's what I did, and I stick by that. Like with any team, there are going to be things that are said that you don't like necessarily, and you've got to work through those and handle it the right way. That's what we've done around here, and that's what we'll continue to do.
When all is said and done, people really don't care whether you ran or threw the ball. They care about winning and losing. We're going to try to do what's working for us and do the best way can.
We understand it's never as good as you think and never as bad as you think in this league. Mike Nolan's putting together a football team right now, working his tail off to get that thing right. He's got a bright future ahead of him.
I've said that from the beginning. Both of them are good people.
Is it going to bug him here for a little bit? ... Yes, probably. Will the bye week (after the Dallas game) help? Probably. But I can't tell you that this far in advance. Donovan's a pretty straightforward guy. Certain guys, you can talk to about (injuries) and they will tell you what's up and if they can go or not go. Donovan's one of those guys.
First thing is, he is a great kid. He worked so hard in the offseason to get that thing back and he came (into camp) in phenomenal shape. We were looking forward to getting him back in there and for that to happen, your heart just goes out to the guy.
There's quite a separation between the ligaments, almost to the point where there was a dislocation of the ankle,
Right now, they're calling it an abdominal strain.
right now they are calling it an abdominal strain... That's what it is right now.
