Dancing around for a few laughs or for fun is not the same as bending, pushing and going full tilt downfield against an opposing force trying to bull through you or out finesse you while trying to dance backwards like a bear looking for a post to scratch it's [BLEEP] on depending on said opposing force's skill set.

I know people that are half this kid's size and they've blown out knees just from stepping out of a boat to plant a foot on a dock to get off it. [BLEEP] happens. It's good to see some promising hope with him being able to participate during practice though. At this point I would rather them just let them rest. Maybe let the starters play a full half in week 3 or week 4 and just shut them all down until the opener against Kansas City.

I'm not sure what to make of the chair thing or th whole change in prognosis over the last 48 hours, but I am not going to complain now that Cam is healthy.

Locker room shenanigans like this are harmless and happen on every team at every level of football to some degree.

Were overthinking this, just bc hes activated from the pup doesnt mean hell be available week 1 which is what marrone said. Cam is doing his first on field work since week 2 of last season, in addition to shaking the rust off, hell have to gain confidence in the knee, go through live contact and make sure his conditioning is adequate. Thats gonna be a process of weeks, him dancing on a chair is non-sequitur were making too big a deal of it
