Hopefully, Josh Freeman is feeling his usual self now, but as of last night he wasn’t quite there yet. And Joe’s not talking about Freeman’s banged up thumb.

Speaking Wednesday evening on The Josh Freeman Show on WDAE-AM 620, No. 5 had a detailed conversation about the effects of jet lag with host Steve Duemig and explained that he still doesn’t feel back to normal.

“Yeah. I still [feel it]. It’s still kinda, you try to get back into a routine but it’s not quite the same, you know. The whole training camp, the season starts, you get into such a routine. And then you fly [roundtrip] to London and it kind of throws you off a little bit. It’s nothing huge, but it’s noticeable,” Freeman said.

Freeman said most teammates slept the entire morning (EST) flight to London but he forced himself to stay awake so he could acclimate to London time (5 hours ahead) faster.

Joe’s not worried about the Bucs and Freeman being able to peform Sunday, considering in the game following the 2009 trip to England they drilled the playoff-bound Packers, 38-28. However, Joe’s happy to point out anything that might lead the Bucs to reconsider another London game for 2012.
