Conley also said he's progressed to some light contact drill work with assistant coaches. He's basically testing tolerance levels to intensity drills. Says there's still a battle with soreness at times. Just the ebb and flow of dealing with rehab.

Conley: "I'm just going through the process, and unfortunately the process is slow. But I'm making progress."

More Conley: "I can't see how I wouldn't (return to play). I'm very confident I'll be suiting up at some point."
Conley adds that the team has input and a role in that decision as well.
