Do we even know if he herniated his disc again, if so will he need additional surgery? If he doesn't have surgery what is to prevent the herniated disc from acting up whenever he plays any amount of time. For all of those that trust the team doctors, why did they clear him last season when he wasn't ready.
What is your point? You don't think the Bengals are taking Carman's back into consideration?
I don't know if he needs surgery or not because I am not a doctor.
I do know that a back surgery is not a death sentence to an athlete's career.
And when did they clear him last year when he was not ready? Carman played in all 20 games last year.
I have no doubt that his back surgery last year probably effected his ability to work out last off season. And he probably was not 100% recovered in July when training camp started because the surgery had to be after Clemson's January playoff game. So that gives me more hope that he will be improved quite a bit this year. He will be fully recovered and have a full offseason to work out.
