You see what I did there? That’s called a bad pun. It’s kinda like what the St Pete Times did with this headline, “Buc’s Cadillac Williams Sprinting Towards Recovery.” Get it? Cadillac is both metaphorically and actually sprinting towards recovery. Touché Times.

In the article Cadillac reassures fans that he will be back this season, which would be somewhat miraculous considering the severity of Cadillac’s injury. Browns center LeCharles Bentley is still recovering from a torn petellar tendon injury suffered two years ago. This is the injury that ended Alonzo Mourning’s career. To Cadillac’s credit he has more going for him, he’s younger and has had an easier rehab than Bentley. But that being written, even if Cadillac returns this season he would not be anywhere close to 100%. But if I had to wager my bet would be we’re going to see a lot more of Earnest Graham and even Warrick Dunn this season than we will see Cadillac.

Although I would love to be wrong about that.

By the by, the Bucs are in the middle of minicamp right now, which is the first chance to see how the rookies and other young players compete against the veterans. I’m not going to spend much time on the minicamps but for some of the best updates go check out BucStats.com (snark included).

    C’mon… If Tiger Woods can win the US Open with an amputated leg, surely Cadillac can get by with what amounts to a little bruise.
