Jets linebacker C.J. Mosley addressed the media on Wednesday afternoon on Zoom, and here is some of what he had to say about his comeback from sports hernia surgery:
Brian Costello – New York Post: Where are you at physically?
C.J. Mosley – Jets linebacker: I’m cleared to do everything. I’m working with my trainers every week as far as workouts and rehab. Once we get back in the building, whenever that is, we will go from there.
Costello: Are your expectations you will be ready for training camp?
Mosley: Yeah.
Al Iannazzone – Newsday:Â C.J., so you have been able to do your running and cutting that you weren’t able to do last month when we spoke?
Mosley: Yeah, correct. I have been doing my workouts that way.
Rich Cimini – ESPN: Lets assume training camp starts on time, are you going to have any concerns? What is your level of concern about gathering with a large group of people amid the pandemic? Do you have any concerns about getting the virus?
Mosley: You can only control what you can control. The NFLPA and the NFL are working together, and working with doctors and experts to make sure everybody is safe and sound when we get back, and if we get back.
I don’t know what the plan is, but I’m just doing everything on my side to to stay safe, and keep my family safe, and make sure I’m ready to go.
Costello: What has been the biggest challenge of this off-season the way it’s been set up virtually?
Mosley: From a football aspect, the challenge hasn’t been hard at all. It was just annoying, we kind of got on a schedule in January and February as far as my rehab and working out. We had reconstruction of the weight room, so we had to move to another gym. As soon as we got that going, everything got shut down. There was a start and stop with everything as far as my rehab. Luckily I have some stuff in my basement, and they did a good job sending me some stuff, so that has been my workout schedule – just working out from home, doing my rehab cards.
Now that I’ve had a chance to get back on a field, I can actually do more work as far as football work and football movements. That was kind of my big thing in the off-season to cut and plant. That was what was stopping me from getting back on the field during the season. Now that I got that out of the way, I’m pretty confident I will be good to go.
