Dee Ford was limited to 16 snaps in Week 3, after experiencing knee tendonitis that may require surgery. Ford plans to play through the pain that kept him out of the preseason, and waits until the season is over to have surgery on his left knee that has been bothering him.

Ford said he has a high pain tolerance, and mentioned how he dealt with this same issue last year, too. He also said, “I didn’t expect it to come back this soon, but it’s nothing I can’t take. I’ve been through worse.
