Westbrook: I'm Not 100 Percent
11th November, 2008 - 5:03 pm
Philadelphia Daily News - Eagles' running back Brian Westbrook has revealed what many around the NFL believed, that he has been playing hurt in recent weeks.

"It's tough to say what your percentage of health is," Westbrook said Monday night. "As a player, you go into every game ready to play, but of course, you're never going to be quite 100 percent during the season. Once you get injured once in the football season, it takes a long time to get completely healthy. For me, I'm still fighting the injury bug, tying to get completely healthy . . .

"There's no question I'm not 100 percent. My goal is to be out there and try to help this team. I want to be out there until Coach feels I'm not able to help this team anymore. I think I'm still able to help this team win football games."

Westbrook has suffered from rib, ankle, and knee injuries this season. [READ]
