Josh Doctson self-diagnosed his MRI as a “fine tune-up”

Josh Doctson has had much attention focused on his Achilles MRI in recent days, and the question came up again post-practice regarding his health and the true nature of the MRI. Doctson was asked if this was something he does annually (MRI) and he said no “just a tune-up, every car gets an oil change,” ending the drama surrounding his health in a not so lengthy response defending the check-up. Doctson in his first three days has looked good, both mentally and physically as a receiver.
