Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Shawn Andrews says his injured back is improving and he expects to play the team's season opener.
Andrews, who underwent back surgery last season, hasn't practiced since the first day of training camp when he re-injured his back. Eagles coach Andy Reid said Saturday he was prepared to start the year without Andrews, a two-time Pro Bowl right guard who is moving to right tackle this season.
Andrews tested his back on Sunday by running 14 40-yard sprints.

I've already given up on Shawn. If he does make it back eventually, bonus. I'm just worrying about Jason Peters.
-
he will be ready.
-
He might be healthy, but no way he's in game shape.
-
do you work out with him?
-
I would if he could. He can't work out with his back all messed up. Sure he does certain exercises, but nothing he would normally do.
-
he is almost ready now, so he will be fine.
