Feel bad for this kid.
Imagine running for over 1,110 yards on only 188 carries (6.2 YPC), with 13 TD's, in the Big 12, to only tear your ACL twice. This dude's last real game was in the Rose Bowl, where he went off for 201 yards and two TD's vs. Georgia.
Talk about living with "What could have been?" for the rest of your life. If he doesn't get hurt who knows where he gets drafted, and how much more he makes. I'm guessing it would have been a lot higher, with millions more in his bank account.
Now he's not only cut, having only made 1 years salary at 400k. He's cut duing a global pandemic, where he has no chance to impress in the preseason. He's likely to gather another year of rust, with probably 250k or so in actual take home income, from what was supposed to be a promising NFL career.
Sucks, man. I hope it somehow all works out for him,
