The injury thing may be a little overstated, I think. On the surface it looks like AJ has had 3 season-ending injuries recently, but remember - he definitely wanted to come back and play in 2016 (he was very outspoken about that), and I got the impression he probably could've played in 2017. The Bengals shut him down both years because they were realistically out of contention and wanted to avoid putting more wear and tear on his body.
