Haloti Ngata isn’t quite sure exactly when he’ll be back on the field due to a strained hamstring injury he’s been dealing with since before camp began. But when he is ready to return, he says he has a lot to prove to himself.
It’s hard to imagine a player like Ngata, who's played in five Pro Bowls and is entering his 10th season in the NFL, to enter a season with a chip on his shoulder, but that’s exactly what he says he’s doing in his first season in Detroit.
“I definitely have a chip on my shoulder because I got traded,” Ngata said Monday.
