Yeah the averages make it sound worse than it really is. He played nearly full seasons in 2013 and 2015. I have a strong feeling he'll be turning in a full season (or close to it) this year. If he does, then suddenly his career looks no worse than MLJ's...and many on here threw tantrums when we didn't throw a big contract at that guy.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
