Myles Garrett suffered a dislocated toe in the day's events. Not a serious injury, and likely one just as easily suffered playing back yard ball at a family gathering. Along with the advent of Garrett's injury, some fans are already clamoring for the elimination of the Pro Bowl and it's festivities all together.
One thing that I'd like those "fans" to remember, everyone started playing this game as kids, because it was fun. That's right, those players are actual people, and not factory tuned robots kept on a shelf all week and then brought out on Sundays for your amusement. If those guys aren't entitled to a fun day to enjoy themselves and showcase the abilities that separate them from the common people, one must begin to question why it is that they even endure all of the dedicated hard work to begin with. To those fans calling for Pro Bowl elimination, I say "suck it"!

Eh, I've been against Bengals players going to the Pro Bowl (not being named, but actually going and participating) since Eifert...
