The Facts:
A slimmer, more muscular Holmes is apparently serious about his comeback. "I'm about 90 percent now," he says. "I'm ready to go." Holmes says he has not missed a meeting. He says he has done everything he can possibly do. After next week's game against Cincinnati, Holmes hopes and expects to be cleared to put on the helmet and pads and practice with the team. Holmes believes he will show everybody something then. He says he's still got it. "I came back to play," he said.
