Cal tailback Jahvid Best, who's been seen zooming on a wheelchair near campus of late, reportedly underwent elbow and foot surgery on Jan. 15 and 23, respectively, and will likely sit out spring ball in March.
The first procedure comes as expected, as it was no secret that the sophomore dislocated his elbow running alongside the Colorado State sidelines on Sept. 27. The foot surgery, meanwhile, comes as somewhat of a surprise. The team revealed in a release today that the procedure was done to address "irritation of an extra bone on the right side of his foot," which was caused by an unspecified injury halfway through the past season. The Bears' medical staff expects Best to begin running in two months and return for fall camp in full health. Best could not be reached for immediate comment.
