FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Matt Forte is getting closer to returning to the New York Jets’ backfield.
The 31-year-old running back has not practiced fully since injuring a hamstring during practice on July 31. Forte participated in individual drills Monday, but was held out of the team periods.
“I’m feeling good, but not good enough to be in full practice yet,” Forte said. “So, I’m just going through what the trainers tell me and easing back in. I don’t want to go back out there immediately and get injured again. Hamstrings are tricky.”
