Sterling Moore medical update

[PonyPride]

Senior cornerback Sterling Moore said Saturday that he expects to be back on the practice field with his teammates Monday morning. Moore has missed about two weeks of preseason camp because of a sprained joint in his left big toe.

"Coach (June) Jones said Monday is when he wants me to come back," Moore said. "He's the one who told me to sit out in the first place, to let it heal up."

Moore said the diagnosis of his injury - which originally was called a turf toe - was changed after a visit to a doctor this week.

"I feel no pain when I'm walking, and I can run straight ahead," Moore said. "Where I had trouble is planting, turning and driving, but hopefully after taking some time off, I'll be OK with that this week."

PlanTing, thanks double PP!

Oops - thanks.

Margus Hunt has taken to calling Moore "Brett Favre" because of the practice time Moore has missed. Hunt is teasing him ... I think.

Glad to hear that S. Moore is back in practice!

Can anyone give an update on Pittman who is facing grand jury decision in Walker County?

Who would take Moore's spot if he can't go?

there are good options. I think, Crawford and Sorrell have been impressive in work-outs thus far. both are JC transfers. See what Sterling says about them in his interview (answers your q at around the 2:30 mark):

hmm..... I think, you meant to post that in the Torlan Pittman thread?

Crawford is already the other starting cornerback opposite Moore and Sorrell is a safety.
