The Charlotte Observer posted a transcript from todays interview with Steve Smith in Spartanburg where he was asked about his shoulder injury, suffered Monday night after he collided with cornerback Chris Gamble. "If I can play, then I'm playing, whether it be preseason or the regular season. If I can't play, I'm not going to play. If I'm not going to be effective and able to compete, then it's not best for the team. I think you've got to be comfortable where you are and feel like you can help. If I'm a lame duck out there, the 11th guy just out there, I don't that's going to really benefit the team." Source: Charlotte Observer
I think he's being pretty straight forward about the situation...if he's hurt, he doesn't feel he can help...no biggie...
