Don’t get me wrong, I’m not in love with guy…even less so now that he is a lion. But his career hasn’t been a very long one.
I’ll dismiss the rookie year as just that, a rookie year. Lots of things happen to rookies their first year to keep them off the field. His following year he popped and everyone fell in love and rightfully so.
Then you run into the COVID year, where injuries and ir and all that changed. COVID year 2 he breaks an ankle…I remember the play but not clearly…was it his fault?
So I’m not sure plagued by injuries is a fair assessment. Even oft-injured might not be that fair. But the reality is, he has had one seemingly injury free year which was his best, so plagued or oft injured, I guess by the letter..he is.
I’m just more confused by the Kirk signing. If injury history is a metric the jags are using, Kirk hasn’t been the picture of health either. So it has to be something else, maybe the toxicity of Meyer created a front office / chark situation? I know him and urban did not gel, at least at first but that seemed to be behind them when urban started grab assing the fans..
