Terry Glenn has kept his promise by being committed to his
workouts and conditioning.

This offseason, WR Terry Glenn (#88) promised that he would be totally
committed to his workouts and conditioning and he kept it. Last year, Glenn spent
most of his time on the bench nursing several injuries...some at the same time. The
injuries were said to be caused by inproper conditioning and poor workouts. He figured
he didn't need to spend the extra time getting physically fit during the offseason
last year because he was already in great shape and had a great recieving year in
1996. He proved himself wrong after a string of injuries ranging from a pulled hamstring
to a broken collarbone. With the absence if Glenn, the Patriots were unable to throw
downfield as well as they could if he was in the lineup. The Pats felt the loss throughout
the year. Adding on to the absence of Glenn, the Patriots were also without star
RB Curtis Martin (now with the Jets) for most of the year, and Dave Meggett and Ben
Coates for the playoff loss against Pittsburgh. DL Willie McGinest was also absent
for the first 2 games of the season, with a severely pulled hamstring. |
