Neal appeared optimistic following Saturday's preseason game against the Jets, telling reporters that he feels OK after leaving the contest with an ankle injury, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.
It's the same ankle that Neal got offseason surgery on, which kept him out of team drills until he was reinstated from the active/PUP list Aug. 11. The 2022 first-round lineman will get a scan on his ankle Sunday, but he appears optimistic that he will avoid a multi-week absence. Neal has started in all 20 regular-season games he has appeared in over the past two years, though he is projected to serve in a backup role on the offensive line for 2024.
