In a full-contact, goal-line drill, on wet grass, the New York Jets green hats' nose tackle felt a familiar sensation in his surgically repaired left knee.
"On one of the plays, I fell the exact same way that I did when I tore my knee last year," Jenkins told Larry Hardesty of 1050 ESPN Radio. "I rolled over and sat there for a second. Everything was together and it held through. I felt great, so I got up and I kept moving on discount NFL hats .
Disaster averted.
Jenkins, who missed the final 10 games last season after tearing his ACL against the Buffalo Bills blank hats, emerged unscathed from his first stress test on the field. The goal-line drill got physical, with bodies flying everywhere. It was only his third practice, the second in full pads. Later, he admitted he wasn't sure how the knee would hold up.
"You have to understand that ... when people ask you a lot of questions like, 'How's your knee going to be? How's this going to be? How's that going to be?' & Sometimes you have a lot of it stuck in the back of your head," Jenkins told reporters afterward. "I use it as motivation, but sometimes you think, 'I'm 31 now. Am I going to be able to go out there? Am I going to be able to play? How is it going to look?' I answered those questions for myself today."
And the entire Jets team exhales of cheap NFL hats .
