VAIL, Colo. -- Lindsey Vonn remains unsure just what effect her latest knee injury will have on her Sochi Olympic hopes. Asked in an interview on NBCs "Today" show Wednesday whether she can put the kind of pressure on the knee she will need to train and make it to Sochi in February, Vonn replied: "To be honest, I dont know." The reigning Olympic downhill champion crashed during a downhill training run in Copper Mountain last week and partially tore a reconstructed ligament in her right knee. Vonn said her immediate plan is to resume training in Vail to test out the knee. She elected to skip the races this weekend in nearby Beaver Creek to give her knee more time to rest. The 29-year-old Vonn hasnt ruled out a possible return to competition in Lake Louise, Alberta, on Dec. 6. "If things go well, you know, Ill be racing next week," Vonn said. "If they dont, then Im going to have to reassess and kind of see where I stand and if I can make a comeback for this season." The four-time overall World Cup champion tore ligaments in her right knee in a high-speed accident at the world championships in February. Shes been well ahead of schedule in her return, but doesnt believe she was pushing too hard to make it back to the slopes. "I was skiing really fast. I was skiing confident. I was very strong," Vonn said. "It just was unfortunately a fluke accident. Thats the risk you take when youre going 80, 90 mph down a mountain. Thats just part of the job. But I picked myself back up and Im trying as hard as I can to keep going. "Im just fingers-crossed that I can be racing next week, because Ive worked so hard all summer to get back to this point and I just want to get back in the starting gate." In her crash last week, Vonn said she caught an edge, flipped over her skis and "went head-first into the fence." She said the knee wasnt the cause of the spill. "The fall caused my knee to give out," Vonn said. "If I hadnt have had my brace on, I definitely would not have had anything left in my knee. It was one of those fluky things that sometimes happen. "Unfortunately, it was really bad timing for me. Im still confident. I still feel like I have a lot left to achieve this season. ... I still have time before Sochi." Air Max Plus Tn Fake .

Hes recovered from a scary injury and cleared to play. Mingo, who was hospitalized with a bruised lung he sustained in an Aug. 15 exhibition game, returned to full contact in practice on Wednesday and is expected to make his NFL debut this week against the Baltimore Ravens. The first-round draft pick missed Clevelands final two preseason games and last weeks season-opening, 23-10 loss to the Miami Dolphins. But doctors have given him the OK to return to the field, and hes looking forward to it. "I feel better knowing that Im able to play if Im called upon," Mingo said. "I feel I bring a lot to this team, and the coaches can use me in different ways. I think thats the best part about it. Im ready to get it done and just ready to play." The No. 6 overall pick in Aprils draft worked with the punt-coverage team and took part in all of the contact drills with Clevelands other linebackers. Last week, he was restricted from hitting the blocking sled or tackling dummies. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski said Mingos role against the Ravens is still to be determined. "Well still be working him, and today well get him out there and see where hes at from a conditioning standpoint and mmake an assessment as we go in the week," Chudzinski said before the Browns practiced in oppressively steamy conditions.dddddddddddd The former LSU standout is listed as a backup to starter Jabaal Sheard, but Mingo is expected to be rotated into Clevelands defence as an edge rusher. The Browns front seven, despite missing Mingo and starter Ahtyba Rubin, recorded four sacks and put decent pressure on Miami quarterback Ryan Tannehill before tiring in the fourth quarter. "I think well get a pretty good rotation with that group," Chudzinski said. "They all really have something to bring to the table, and thats a strength of ours." Mingo believes he was injured while covering the opening kickoff against Detroit, but doesnt recall any significant contact. He experienced shortness of breath and spit up some blood while standing on the sideline. Mingo isnt concerned about taking another big hit, but said his mother, Barbara Johnson, is nervous about his safety. "She was worried. She still is," Mingo said. "She asks me every day how am I doing. I just have to let her know that Im doing good, I feel good. The coaches and the doctors both agree that Im able to play. Im ready to play, so I think shell be OK." ' ' '
