“I have been dealing with a knee since my third year in the league,” he said during an appearance on the “Nightcap Show.” “I haven’t seen a training ground at all, not because I didn’t want to or the Dolphins just wanted me to rest. It is as if I could literally not walk.
“After a match on Sunday, I could not walk alone, under my own power, before Wednesday, Thursday. So I could only play under painting against pain. I could not put pressure on my knee, so it was like, I can’t continue to do.”
