'We were shocked'
When Daniels finally sought a diagnosis in May, a stress fracture in the kneecap was discovered.
"We think it started with something really small and gradually progressed," he said. "I was still rehabbing hard and running routes and everything like that. We're glad we found it when we did. It could have been much worse."
Was he scared?
"Absolutely," he said. "We were blindsided by it. We were expecting to see a little inflammation. We were shocked. It was a type of thing Dr. (James) Andrews hadn't seen hardly ever. Dr. (Walter) Lowe hadn't seen it."
Daniels flew around the country, and of the "eight or nine" doctors he saw, five of them recommended surgery to implant screws to speed up and secure the healing. But a second surgery might mean missing the 2010 season — or worse.

Who knew OD suffered this complication and resulting delay of about 2 months ? According to the story it could have been much worse - missing the 2010 season or even possibly career-ending ? Given all of this we've got to know there's probably still great uncertainty about his recovery to previous form.
