Buffaloed in Pa Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 I read a story on twobills drive just now and it stated that Spikes still has a limp. Is there truth to this? Did he move real well in the game?
Peter Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 Check out his post game comments on BuffaloBills.com. He says that he is 100%.
JoeF Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 The story is the AP story on Spikes Its says he still walks with a slight limp..I would say that this is pretty normal for this stage of recovery and that his total mobility both on and off the field will not return for a while..but there is a stage of rehab near the end where the tendon is healed and you have to push yourself to get back the full range..I think he is at the stage. Pyrite Gal or some other medical expert can answer for sure...
Pyrate Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 Jauron did not say whether Spikes would play in the Bills' final preseason game Thursday at Detroit. Spikes declared himself fit for Buffalo's season opener at New England on Sept. 10. Spikes still walks with a slight limp, but he said he feels fine. "Just getting the first play out of the way and being able to get in on the tackle, that was my highlight," he said. "It's a big relief." http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2563037
Buffal0 Bill5 Posted August 27, 2006 Posted August 27, 2006 I have noticed with other people in the past, that a limp is a hard habit to get out of. When you have an injury and begin to favor one limb, you kinda train yourself to do it, and it becomes sub-conscious. When healing occurs, the limp stays, although no longer necessary. I am not a doctor, nor do I play one on televesion. Heck, I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Just something I have observed in human behavior.

NEEDFREDJACKSONNOW Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 FWIW...It's funny this came up. I was at the game and saw TKO walk off at some point in the 1st Q and thought "He's walking funny...."
