He is 35 years old, one injury from probably being done for his career. If he gets hurt in LA, I almost but guarantee that he would be released, Do you think the Bengals would release him? Very doubtful unless it was career ending.
He went where the money was, plain and simple but he got a screwed contract with no future after one year.
There's a future alright. If his skills decline or the Rams have a cap casualty purge in 2018, he'll be back in stripes so fast your head will spin.
