If he's not cutting now, I'm skeptical he'll be ready to go on opening day.

Oehser's paraphrase was a little misleading. Bradley said "He's doing good. I know he's getting up to full speed straight ahead and now they're working on change of direction."
Sounds to me like he's just achieved running straight at full speed and they are beginning to introduce the change of direction to his recovery. I think that makes more sense in terms of stress on the hamstring as well.
Quote:And that's fine. It would be nice to get him reps in the preseason, but it's more important that he's healthy when the games count.
yep! i'm good with him coming back second game or third game or whatever, so long as he doesnt rush back. i think we will be fine with shorts, lee, brown, hurns, and doss in the interim.

If Hurns hadn't taken advantage of his opportunity to alleviate some concerns, I'd probably be more eager to get Robinson back, but that's been a great find. Hopefully he continues to improve.
