Tennessee Titans quarterback Steve McNair, whose injury-plagued 2004 season left him considering retirement, says he feels good again and plans to return for his 11th season.
McNair hurt his chest last September, and wound up missing eight games. In December, McNair had surgery to graft a sliver of bone from his right hip onto his sternum to strengthen it. Doctors have been monitoring his recovery with periodic tests, and he was cleared to throw within the last 10 days.
"I am excited about coming back to play this season. I feel good physically. My sternum is healing," McNair said Friday in a statement.
Man this would be tough. Knowing your team is going to suck and you will get the crap beat out of you again. Hats off to one of the toughest guys and good luck this season you will need it.
