Jaguars RT Eben Britton injured his back doing squats

"Jaguars right tackle Eben Britton spoke today and shed some more light on his back injury and how he sustained it.

Britton suffered a herniated disc while doing "explosive squats" one day. He said he was squatting about 425 pounds.

"It was a technical error, literally, on my part," Britton said. "I wasn't braced and I felt it right away. I knew exactly when it happened. ... One of the good things the doctor said when looking at the MRI was that my spine was one of the best he's seen, in the best shape he's seen in any NFL player. So that was good news.

"I think it really it's just about being able to play at my highest level, which to me is pretty much getting back to how my body felt my rookie year and it's really about just working around that.""
