Ronald Curry is back on his feet

Posted Jun 13, 2008

Ronald Curry has dealt with so many injuries in his NFL career that he wasn't about to let a bone spur in his foot sideline him. The former UNC quarterback played through that pain to be Oakland's leading receiver last year until it finally became too tough to handle this offseason. After undergoing surgery that forced him to miss six weeks of offseason practices, Curry returned to his usual spot at receiver this week for the Raiders. (Raleigh News & Observer)
