October 25, 2007 6:59 PM IRVING, Texas - Cowboys head coach Wade Phillips spoke to wide receiver Terry Glenn about his rehab from arthroscopic knee surgery and said the 12th-year veteran is another "week or two" from taking the next step in his recovery.

Phillips said Glenn, who hasn't practiced since undergoing a Sept. 13 scope to remove torn cartilage, is now working to rebuild the strength in his quadriceps that was lost following the surgery.

"His spirits are good," Phillips said. "He's in the process of doing that, which will take probably a week or two. Then they'll go from there. Then he can start jogging and so forth. It's going to be a little while before we know exactly where he is."

The Cowboys are committed to holding a roster spot for Glenn, who opted for the arthroscopic procedure to potentially return this season even though the scope doesn't guarantee a full recovery

Best guess as to when Glenn will be back on the field?

My guess Week 12-13

I always like to throw this out there in a Glenn thread:

Glenn's 'quad injury' more serious

posted: Thursday, November 9, 2006

Cowboys coach Bill Parcells made an interesting revelation about the injury to wide receiver Terry Glenn. Glenn missed his second day of practice with what is reported as a quad injury. Parcells revealed during his Thursday press conference that Glenn has a bone-on-bone condition in the back of one of his knees.

Because the injury was at the back of the knee, Parcells was technically being honest by saying the problem area was near the quad.

Bone-on-bone conditions can only be repaired by microfracture surgeries, but those procedures are done as a last resort. Glenn can play through this injury even though it's painful. If he doesn't practice Friday, though, he may have to miss the Arizona game.

Glenn was given the option of microfracture surgery and miss the rest of the season with the chance his career would be over or have his second scope operation this season and see if it would help enough for him to be able to return this season. He said he chose to have his knee scoped again because he thought Dallas had a good chance to make it to the SB this year and he realized due to his knee condition this could be his last chance. I think anyone knows what his chances are of playing again this season.

If it is going to be another couple weeks before he can even try to job on it, I don't think that his fantasy value is going to be worth anything this year. Best case scenario, is that he gets back into the line-up directly before the play-offs, and is used as a slot receiver.
