Vikings left tackle Bryant McKinnie recently tweeted that he has plantar fasciitis in both of his feet. On Friday, he was kind enough to provide us with an update.
McKinnie tweeted "the feet injury is starting 2 feel better. I get 2 take the tape off 2day. I go back [to the doctor] on Wednesday."
We are guessing this progress is 2 the Vikings and McKinnie's liking.
McKinnie informed those who follow him on Monday that he had to get his feet taped for three days, do calf stretches and take medicine for a week. McKinnie, of course, was removed from the NFC Pro Bowl roster after failing to show up for practices and later said he couldn't play in the game because his feet were bothering him so much.
