    Rutgers football player Eric LeGrand was back on a football field Thursday as he recovers from a spinal cord injury.

    LeGrand presided over the coin toss for the Snapple Bowl between the Union and Middlesex high school all-star teams at Kean University in Union, N.Y., the Newark Star-Ledger reported. LeGrand was greeted by applause and hugs from players, according to the newspaper.

    As has been reported, LeGrand stood for the first time last week, but he reported that it was for seven minutes the first day and eight the next. He told the newspaper that when he can stand for a half hour he will go on a special treadmill to train his legs.
