David Garrard's sore back is getting better. Jacksonville's quarterback even hopes to play in next week's preseason game against Atlanta. Garrard returned to the practice field Saturday after missing more than a week of training camp. He threw passes during the team's morning walkthrough and was expected to take repetitions with the first-team offense Saturday evening. "I'm tired of sitting around and watching," Garrard said. "But I'm not going to try to overdo myself with too many extra things." The 33-year-old Garrard left practice Aug. 4 because of back pain and could barely walk the following day. He spent the last week working with team trainers, but sat out Thursday night's preseason opener at New England. Rookie Blaine Gabbert started in his place and had an up-and-down debut. Garrard made the trip and helped Gabbert from the sideline. Garrard wanted to play, especially since he missed the 2010 season finale because of a finger injury.
