JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback David Garrard expects to pass his post-concussion tests Tuesday and be cleared to practice the following day.
Garrard, speaking for the first time since his concussion last Monday night against Tennessee, says he failed the NFL-mandated tests Friday. He says he was in “total cloud coverage” all week after Titans linebacker Will Witherspoon drove him to the ground in the 30-3 loss.
Garrard says the next day was “just awful.” He was sensitive to light and noise, but never vomited. His focus, demeanor and speech were “really slowed down.”
Garrard says he started feeling better Saturday and even worked out Sunday and Monday. Coach Jack Del Rio says Garrard will start Sunday’s game at Dallas if he passes his tests Tuesday.
