Maybe Sunday, the uncertainty will cease for Anthony Gonzalez. Monday, it was clear the Indianapolis Colts' 2007 first-round draft pick wasn't totally pleased with how the recently concluded preseason had unfolded. That had nothing to do with an injury to his right knee that forced him to miss virtually all of 2009. "Body feels great,'' Gonzalez said. "Knee feels great.'' The issue is Gonzalez's role as a receiver in the Colts' offense, and how it was determined. "Until Sunday,'' he said of the Colts' season opener at AFC South rival Houston, "I don't think it's worth speculating. "I have an idea what it's going to be.'' By all appearances and inferences, it won't be what Gonzalez anticipated after he completed his comeback from surgery to repair ligament damage in his right knee sustained in the first quarter of the '09 opener. "What I wanted and what I was promised was an opportunity to compete for a job,'' he said. Did that not occur? "I don't know,'' he said. "All I wanted was what was promised to me. I'm not sure either way that it did. "I'm probably not the person to ask, really. Whether a job is open or competition takes place, is something that is determined by coaches, not players.''
