DE Shawne Merriman turned 28 on May 25, but he feels like he may have turned back the clock in a way. Though Merriman's dealt with a number of setbacks with a nagging Achilles injury, he hasn't had much wear and tear on the rest of his body as a result. "I’m like Benjamin Button, man," he said. "I’m going backwards. ... I’m moving around as I did when I came into the league."
