Ed Reed - Hip Surgery

[barrett]

I agree anything we heard about negotiations is from the agent.

I am 100% sure we didn't sign one of the older players in the NFL without a physical. Especially when it was the slowest signing in history.

I agree it makes no difference where Reed is in training camp.

All that matters is if this is dealt with by week 1 (and I'm not overly confident or pessimistic on that).

Does anyone know the exact procedure he had? Was it for a degenerative thing? A recent injury? Something nagging they thought would heal on its own but they got proactive now so it wouldn't linger? I'm not real familiar with hip surgeries other than replacements.
