I don't think Springs or Tyer or anyone else thought it would be an issue as they entered into training camp. Springs was hurting in January, but by the time OTA's came around he was healthy and ready to go again. It wasn't bothering him at that point so everyone probably thought the coast was clear. Now that they've gotten back to hitting and having more intense workouts, I'm sure it got reaggravated, and now they have addressed it properly.
I don't think anything could have been done any differently. Hindsight 20/20.

I think he is just pulling a T.O.:food-smil
I'm not a doctor... but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night.

I don't want to suggest anything contrary to what you're saying, BUT he is a 30ish FA with a huge SB and we all know the history here.

No need to question Springs, he's been a warrior for the two years he's been a Skin. He's three years into a $10 mil signing bonus, he's no TO.
Love the conspiracy theory angle though.

It's his body. He has to do what he feels best. He doesn't have to have a motive. You would do whatever it takes to feel better fast!

I put the responsibility squarely on Shawn Springs doctors. The last couple of seasons our staff has misdiagnosed several injuries and because of this the player was either pushed back to soon or it took longer than originally expected because they didn't do what was necessary because of an incorrect diagnoses.
I'm not even sure what the conspiracy theory is here.
What would be his motives to putting off getting 100% healthy??

Who?
He's probably talking about Arrington and Hall.
Let's not overlook the fact that these guys also get second opinions from top specialists from all over the country.
It's not just team doctors at fault here. Medicine isn't an exact science either.
