Jacksonville Jaguars defensive tackle Terrance Knighton is dealing with a long recovery after having emergency surgery on his eye. Knighton will be out of commission for at least three months recovering from the injury that resulted from an incident at a Jacksonville night club.

In some good news, Knighton revealed on Twitter that he has regained vision in his left eye.

In good spirits!! Recovery is moving along great. Can see out of my left eye again and can't wait for it to be back normal. Thanks everyone!

The major concern for Knighton stems from the fact that his physical activity over the next three months will be limited. This is a concern for a player like Knighton, who has struggled with his weight in the past, and limiting his ability to work out and keep himself in shape could pose a problem as to when Knighton can actually make it back onto the football field.
