Brown keen to get in better "game shape"

Andre Brown has said that he is looking to get into "better game shape" as the season continues.

The running back, who fractured his leg during the pre-season, made his first appearance of the season last week, rushing for 115 yards and a touchdown during the 24-20 win over the Oakland Raiders.

The 26-year-old told reporters: "In certain situations you look at it and you know I would rather take a blow and then come back out there on the next play where I'm capable of being 100% instead of 80.

"I do that, but as the season goes on, I'm pretty sure that I'll get in better game shape and be able to go and not tap out.

"As long as we're winning, I don't care. I'm playing right now. I'm playing good ball. We're playing good ball. As long as we're doing that, I'll let them manage that and what have you, but I'm just going to go out there and play ball."
