When Mike Daniels sprained his right foot in a Week 3 win over the Philadelphia Eagles, one of the few things that kept him sane was knowing he had been through this all before.

Daniels suffered a left foot injury while playing for the Green Bay Packers last fall. He missed the final six games of the season with that injury, and when his rehab lingered longer than expected, the Packers cut him in July as a cap casualty.
