All injury news in the NFL right now has to be digested with the possibility that preseason practice might not even begin for several weeks -- if then -- thanks to the lockout.

Bruce Carter Injury: ‘85 Percent Healthy,’ Says Cowboys Rookie
“The knee’s doing well,” Carter recently told the Galloway and Company radio show on KESN-FM 103.3. “I’d probably say to myself that I’m about 85 percent.

I’m ready to go.”
