"Well, everybody was freaking out," Kuper said in a recent interview with The Denver Post. "And I didn't want to freak out. I'm sure I was in a little bit of shock, but it didn't hurt as bad as it looked. When I did it, I was like, 'That's a really bad high ankle sprain.' Until I saw it."
Last week, Kuper had a second surgical procedure on the left fibula, this one to remove a screw that was causing discomfort. The security screeners at the Denver International Airport will be pleased to know there are still seven screws and a plate holding the leg and ankle together. He is down to one crutch after spending the previous three months needing two.
And yet, Kuper believes it will be weeks, not months, before he is back in the lineup protecting new quarterback Peyton Manning.
"I think June, 100 percent I'll be there," Kuper said
Hope he doesn't rush it.
