For a guy that doesn't complain, that works extremely hard and really never receives credit for the things that he does for this team ... it's tough. We've all been injured, but this kind of an injury, with surgery -- you never know what can happen afterwards.

I'm not the one who got injured by a guy named Chad.

It's not hard at all. We're both able to do it. Let's just not blow it way out of proportion. We were able to go out for the first time this preseason and be able to get our chemistry and our timing where we want them to be. There's obviously still some time for us to work on that. We were both excited, if we celebrated together or if we celebrated with our other teammates, whatever it may be. We communicated in a way that was suited to both of us.

T.O. was the first read, but he was covered, so I looked to Greg Lewis and he was covered. I stepped up into a running lane, and I saw [Owens] coming off the defender.

I saw the mismatch with T.O. to the outside and I decided to take it. I tried to put it in a decent spot. He did an excellent job of accelerating to the ball and scoring the touchdown.

I'm not really in a hurry to get up under the knife.
