But he was often injured in college and we are seeing the same thing now. You never can tell if these guys will turn it around or not. Anthony Munoz had 2 knee surgeries in college and was an iron man in the NFL. But a lot of guys who had problems with injury in college are never healthy in the NFL either.
I'm not saying he's was/is not a good player- but the expectation that he was going to be some amazing passrusher may have been a bit premature. I don't recall if anyone here really talked about it as much but I know on some of the Bengals podcasts they had talks of being him a possible 10 sack player.
