Matt Slauson described his level of pain last season as "quite a significant amount." That's because the Jets left guard started every game with a torn labrum, rotator cuff and bicep in his left shoulder, he revealed today.
"I knew something was wrong, but I was like, 'OK, I'll keep on playing as long as I can play,' and I was able to get through it all," Slauson said after a press conference to announce WrestleMania will be held at MetLife Stadium in April 2013. "I felt like I had a fairly successful year personally with it. So I'm really excited about next year without having pain."
Slauson had surgery right after the Jets' season ended last month — open surgery, not just a scope — to repair the shoulder. He said the recovery time is five to six months, so he will be limited through organized team activities this spring. But he expects to be 100 percent for training camp.
Slauson said he feels “great,” and the recovery is going well so far. He went so far as to say that in about another month, he will be physically ahead of the condition he played in all last season.
