LaRon Landry's practice uniform since training camp began has included a visor instead of a helmet. That was supposed to change Sunday, but it didn't. Landry was scheduled to return to practice, his ailing left Achilles tendon sufficiently strengthened, but he remained on the physically-unable-to-perform list because he injured his hamstring while working out last week in Indianapolis, coach Mike Shanahan said.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I am a reasonably fit, 61-year-old male who exercises several times a week by walking and the use of Nautilus equipment. I am 5 feet, 8 inches tall and weigh 170 pounds. I recently ruptured my Achilles tendon while jogging across a parking lot to my car in a futile attempt to stay dry during one of our frequent rain storms. How could this happen? I wasn't doing anything I haven't done many times before. I regularly use the calf machine and lift almost the full stack of weights. I didn't fall. My orthopedic surgeon suggests old age, bad luck or sin. I had participated in a clinical trial of cholesterol-lowering drugs and have read there might be a correlation between statin use and tendon damage. How can I keep this from happening again? I am not ready to resign myself ...

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: During a basketball game I was playing in, I heard a loud popping sound. When I went to take a step, I fell to the ground. An associate told me I had a sprained ankle and that it would get better in six weeks. During that time I was in a lot of pain and had to hop up stairs, since I live on the second floor. After 10 weeks, I saw a specialist and was told to get an MRI scan and a cast walker brace. The MRI revealed that the tendon was almost completely torn. The specialist said it was too late for a brace and that I needed surgery. So far I have had two surgeries. I told my associate that if he hadn't said I had an ankle sprain, I would have had treatment earlier and might not have needed surgery. He says I would have had to have surgery anyway. Who's right? - T.T. ANS...
