Here’s his released statement via Facebook<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“I wanted to update you all on how my injury has been progressing.
\nFirst off, I want to thank you all for your amazing support. Your messages and your support have really helped me and my family through a tough time.<\/p>\n

I had orthoscopic surgery on Monday morning to remove some bone spurs that were pinching my sciatic nerve. The surgery was a complete success and I can\u2019t tell you how well I\u2019m feeling already.<\/p>\n

My doctors have recommended I take it easy for now but can begin light training in about two weeks. They also think I\u2019ll be able to train at 100% in about four to five weeks. I\u2019ll follow their orders but I can\u2019t wait to get back in there.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
