Is it the cleats?
That was Jamarye Joiner’s suspicion last year. The Arizona receiver felt pain in his left foot. He thought it was a byproduct of breaking in new shoes. Cleats are often uncomfortable when you first start wearing them. He didn’t think much of it. And yet …
“I pretty much had that feeling all season,” Joiner said.
It didn’t stop Joiner from appearing in all 12 games. Or from catching 34 passes for a team-high 552 yards and five touchdowns in his first season as a wide receiver.
