The most-watched joint in Miami since the last Cheech & Chong tour continues to heal. And the swollen ankle of Colts defensive end Dwight Freeney is, the player said on Thursday, "starting to look more like an ankle now."
And that's encourating news for the Colts, whose defense will have a much different dynamic if Freeney can't play at his normal level.
Freeney also told the media that he "probably" will test the ankle at practice on Friday. He avoided talking about the manner in which he'll be used on Sunday, but at one point he said that "miracles do happen."
That means one thing -- he'll play, but the Colts aren't expecting much out of him.

Who cares? After not preparing for Ware when he was "hurt", it backfired on the Saints. You think they are going to let that happen again?
Florio, how late did you stay up last night thinking of that first line?
Dwight,
could you please email some pics of your ankle so we can feel bad for you and have an excuse in case you play bad?
yea until it snaps in two the first time he cuts the corner and heads for Brees. He will be nothing more then a decoy in this game.
thats cause Ware played at full strength. Freeney naghunna be at full strength.

i trained racehorses for a long time- it is truly a wonder what modern medicine can do to tighten up a joint and fast. or even a tendon - remember curt schilling's "bloody socked" tendon?
