He may or may not come back, if at all. They said in the next week we should know something by this week.Bowles explained why he did not give much information on Jensen's status, saying, "Because we didn't have an answer, I didn't give a comment. I wasn't trying to be mean or Bobby Portis Jersey anything. They just told me to wait until the swelling goes down because it could go one of two ways and we are just waiting for it." Bowles told reporters days after the injury that he does know his center will mi s several months, but apart from that, nothing has been decided yet."I don't know the severity of it per se, but I do know he will mi s some significant time, up to a couple of months," Bowles said .
