This current injury means Lawson will have only had 3 healthy seasons ('16, '17, '20) in 8 years ('14-'21), and two of those years he missed an entire season ('14, '21)
I have to agree with this. You can call it back luck or whatever, but the fact is there are some folks who are just really injury prone and dont seem to be able to hold up well playing football. IMO, and I'm probably way off, but Lawson almost seems to play too hard and too fast sometimes for his own good. At least thats the way I viewed him when he got hurt playing for the Bengals often. I'm happy we let him go and got some other guys. Hated the idea of paying a high tag for an injury prone QB pressure artist.
