The 28-year-old has only a few months remaining on his deal and spoke about his future on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football.
He stated: "I'm doing well. I think when I did the interview I said it's the best I've felt, at that time.
Obviously coming out of rehab and getting ready to be back playing. It's been tough but it's a journey that I'm on but I'm enjoying it and I'm ready to get back now."
The 28-year-old added: "I've had to be patient and really learn what patience is. It's been a long journey with the (groin) injury. A lot of ups and downs and it's helped me grow as a person. I'm not thankful to be injured but to have this opportunity to get to know myself. I think the pain of the injury is something I can channel when I am back and use it to motivate me.
"After the interview a lot of people asked me, 'When are you coming back to football?' and they thought I was taking a break. It's just been an injury problem, one that I'm hopefully getting to the end of. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and I'm excited."
