Boldin Could Miss 2-4 Weeks
2nd November, 2005 - 11:22 am
Arizona Republic - Team doctors told Cardinals receiver Anquan Boldin that he could be out 2-4 weeks with a deep bone bruise in his right knee.

Boldin used the word "pleased" to describe the way he felt when he learned the results from a magnetic resonance imaging exam on his knee didn't contain the word "torn." Torn knee ligaments could have ended his season.

"Just hearing the word 'bruise' was a sigh of relief," Boldin said Tuesday while signing autographs and meeting fans at a new Alltel store in Mesa. "Like I said before, I didn't think I tore anything. But you never know with a knee. (The current injury) doesn't require surgery. All it takes is for me to stay off of it a little bit."

The Cardinals feared that the exam taken Monday would reveal torn ligaments, the same injury in the same knee Boldin suffered in training camp last season and kept him out of the first six games.

"I don't want to rush anything, but at the same time I want to get back on the field and help my teammates," Boldin said. [READ]
