Demario Davis spoke to the media on Wednesday and gave this update on his injury…<\/p>\n
On how it feels to be back out on the field\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n It feels great. It\u2019s great to be back out there. Anytime something like that happens, it\u2019s very unfortunate. Especially going into training camp, it\u2019s tough. I was kind of upset that I wouldn\u2019t be able to practice right away, but I thank the Lord for healing me up. We have a great training staff and they\u2019ve been great. They helped me recover back to 100%, probably 105%. I\u2019m just grateful to be back out there.<\/p>\n On if he was trying to show off by going hard in the running and conditioning drill\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n No, when you\u2019ve been sitting out that long, a lot of passion (builds up). When you have passion for the game of football and you\u2019re not able to play, it\u2019s like caging a lion. He\u2019s going to go crazy. When you get back out there on the field, it\u2019s tough to put the brakes on. It\u2019s just good to be out there.<\/p>\n On if he has ever been injured before\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n No, fortunately I\u2019ve been blessed to have a career in which I\u2019ve never been out more than a day. It was tough going through the hamstring injury without it having happened before. I\u2019ve never had to sit out in any kind of camp, so not being able to go into my first NFL training camp was extremely tough. Right when it happened, I went home and I prayed hard. I asked the Lord just to heal me up and I\u2019d be patient until he healed me up all the way. Once he healed me up all the way, that\u2019s when I\u2019d go back. Our training staff worked with me night and day, night and day, like they do with everybody. Those two (actions) combined, helped out the best.<\/p>\n On if the injury set him back\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n I don\u2019t think so. I\u2019m a big picture person. I\u2019m always looking at the big picture. In our big picture, our goal is to win the Super Bowl and I want to contribute as quickly and as fast as possible. The big thing is just missing reps. You don\u2019t want to miss reps. The fact that I was out there missing reps was tough because you want your game plan in full effect. I wasn\u2019t able to contribute to the game plan right away (since) they would have been able to use me in certain packages. It was kind of tough, but I never fretted or felt like I was getting too far behind because I stayed up and watched extra film. I stayed caught up and now I\u2019m out there moving around. I\u2019m ready to contribute to whatever they need me to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Demario Davis spoke to the media on Wednesday and gave this update on his injury… On how it feels to be back out on the field\u2026 It feels great.
