"The diagnosis is a spinal cord bruise, which puts him similar to Major Burns' situation where there was a bruise. Nothing else. No structural issues. That's probably going to take, you know, five, six weeks before we can get him back."

"Now, Major Burns starts -- so talking about similar patterns here, Major Burns starts running today. He will be outside running with us."

"Next week he'll begin noncontact drills, football noncontact drills with us. There will be a similar protocol and procedure, provided there's no setbacks along the way."

"So, really fortunate and really appreciate all the help that we got from our own medical team and certainly Auburn's as well in what was a very scary situation."
