Looks like Chad has made some pretty remarkable progress in his rehab. Video: Giants' Chad Jones making progress in his rehab from car accident | NJ.com
He's definitely making progress. I wish him the very best in his recovery. It's going to be truly amazing if he's able get to the point of being able to play football again. He's got a long way to go.
An amazing coincedence. I was just thinking about him yesterday and was wondering to myself how he was doing. Great to see his rehab going well. Hope we see him on the field again soon. Thanks for posting.:thumb:
Your coincidence is a coincidence... I too was just talking to a co-worker yesterday about Jones and we were wondering how he was doing. Heavy, eh?
Good read in today's NY Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/20/sports/football/20rhoden.html?_r=1&ref=sports :geauxtige
If he can't make it back to football, baseball is still very much an option. Being a left hander, I would think the right leg is more vital as the left is only used in pushing off the rubber. The right leg has all the weight coming down on it during delivery. A left handed relief specialist can make much more money than most football players.
There's a lot more stress put on "plant" feet/legs than people realize. Hitting the brakes with the lead leg has a lot to do with velocity too.
