SANTA CLARA, Calif. Tyler Austin Jersey . - An extra week to heal has proved beneficial for San Francisco tight end Vernon Davis, who says he can play without thinking again. And thats a good thing. Coming off an injury, it always lingers and its in your mind when youre playing, Davis said Thursday. I feel healthy enough to go out, get going, not thinking, just reacting. Hampered by ankle and back problems most of the season, Davis hopes to add to his 14 catches for 142 yards in the 49ers rematch with the visiting St. Louis Rams on Sunday. An All-Pro player last year after catching 13 touchdown passes, Davis has been limited to a pair of touchdown receptions, both in the first quarter of the 49ers season-opening victory over the Dallas Cowboys. Youre always going to have trials and face adversity, Davis said. You can grow from it if you deal with it the right way. San Francisco offensive co-ordinator Greg Roman expects bigger things ahead for Davis, the franchise leader among tight ends with 55 touchdowns. I think hes back to form, and you know, hes been playing through some things, Roman said. Hes gutted his way through it and I think hes got a very focused glare when it comes to what he wants to accomplish from here on out. Regaining his proficiency as a deep threat is one of those things he wants to accomplish. For the most part I feel like I can do a lot of things well, Davis said. The bye week was a great opportunity to work on things and to try to get healthy. His presence would give Colin Kaepernick, who threw for season highs of 343 yards and three touchdowns in the 49ers win over the Rams three weeks ago, another weapon in the passing game. Ill do whatever it takes to win, Davis said. Ill block for Frank Gore, Ill be the decoy down field, whatever it takes. As far as dealing with adversity, Davis only needs to look down a few lockers to see how running back Marcus Lattimore has been dealing with it for two years. Lattimore, who turned 23 on Wednesday, is two years removed from a devastating knee injury and made his practice debut this week, getting individual attention from former 49ers fullback Tom Rathman, among others. It was great to see him out there, Roman said. He worked with coach Rathman after practice and got with some of the defensive players and got some contact work, which was really good. The 49ers have 21 days to decide whether to put him on the active roster. NOTES: WR Stevie Johnson, a San Francisco native, said the Giants winning the World Series puts pressure on us to make it a San Francisco thing. Hopefully, the Warriors can take the NBA. Johnson said the San Jose Sharks Logan Couture once told him that the difference in the playoffs was how people reacted to each other. Thats what we want here and it could be a special year.

Now their most prominent stars are going at it. Cavs All-Star guard Kyrie Irving and Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon spent the past few days in a media spat, exchanging barbs across TV, Twitter and newspaper. Gordon, who led the NFL with yards receiving last season, fired the first verbal volley last week when he went on ESPNs "First Take" and discussed Irvings problems this season with teammate Dion Waiters. "I talked about it with Dion," Gordon said. "Hes my neighbour in my building so we hang out all the time. Im aware of the rift in the locker room. Thats just alpha males and supreme athletes trying to share the spotlight." Irving didnt waste any time in shooting back, telling the Akron Beacon Journal, "Guys like Josh Gordon need to stay in his sport and mind his own business. Does he still play for the Browns? Ill continue to root for the Browns, but in terms of this stuff here, what goes on in this locker room, he needs to stay out of it." On Sunday, Gordon responded to Irving via social media by tweeting: "Smh. (shake my head). ... i touched a nerve." Following Mondays practice at Cleveland Clinic Courts, Waiters and Irving, standing side-by-side against a wall, attempted to clear up any misunderstanding. They insist they get along well. "Weve been friends before we even made the NBA, before any of this," Waiters said. "I just think yall saying we dont like playing with one another, yeah, we still need to learn certain things. But I think at the end of the day, were genuinely friends. I love him as a friend, teammate, everything. I just want everybody to know that. "I dont hate this guy. Im pretty sure he dont hate me. I know he dont hate me. I hope he dont hate me. Rome wasnt built in one day. Were still young. Were still planning to stay together. Were still working. As long as weve got great communication down its fine. Yasmani Grandal Jersey. " Irving said he has spoken to Gordon about the comments. "I just let him know that the whole situation kind of got blown out of proportion," Irving said. "There was no disrespect on my end to him or anything he does. I have the utmost respect for him." Before Saturdays home game against Charlotte, Irving said he has grown tired of media reports saying he wants to leave Cleveland. "The barrage and little bit of attack that I saw, Ive been getting it all season and I feel I definitely dont deserve it," he said. "Its one of those things where I can deal with it, but at a certain point, its gotten too much. Its been like that the whole entire season." Irving then went out and scored a career-high 44 points in a 96-94 overtime loss that pushed the Cavs to the edge of elimination from the playoff chase. Irving, who recently returned from a biceps injury, said he has been unfairly scrutinized. "Its all nonsense to me," he said. "Thats part of the business. I get it. Its part of the job. To go out and frame my character to something its not. ... Im not an attention seeker. I dont go out trying to put all these rumours out. For people that feel that its a good thing to continue to put my name in the headlines to get reads, thats your job, but at a certain point its got to stop." Irvings stance is the latest turbulence in what has been a bumpy season for the Cavs. The team fired general manager Chris Grant in March, and the Cavs have been wildly inconsistent in a season in which owner Dan Gilbert had predicted would end with the first playoff appearance since 2010 -- before LeBron James left. The Cavs can offer Irving, the MVP in this years All-Star game, a maximum contract extension this summer. Irving has said he enjoys playing in Cleveland but has been noncommittal about whether hell accept the long-term deal. Maybe Gordon knows. ' ' '
