His body may beg to differ.

I guess, what I meant, is it could have been worse just constantly getting tackled for years.

It's also not "ideal" though. Ideal would be not have a new OC every year and running for your life behind a porous OL getting which gets you hurt and also deprives you of the ability to play to your fullest potential, ending up with busted body and reputation.

Preach. I’m sure he’s thrilled with the money, but this isn’t the career he wanted. Dude is a class act though. He’s never talked shit and does all the right things.
