Junior Seau told the Associated Press today that he had arthroscopic surgery on his left rotator cuff just days after the Patriots lost to the Giants in the Super Bowl. Seau said he was hurt in the fourth game of the season, in Cincinnati, but played the season in pain. He never appeared on the Patriots' injury report this season. "There's no grace time there," he said. "I was caught in a wrong position. I just fell on it awkwardly. I felt it and it didn't recover. So I had to deal with it. Every player has an injury during the course of the year. In order to get through it, you have to persevere. No 1, you have to make sure you're not a liability. Obviously that was not the case." The 39-year old Seau becomes a free agent at midnight, and is still deciding whether he will return for a 19th NFL season. "I have a choice of playing or a choice of surfing. Those are great choices to have," Seau said.
