What made Chad great was the way he worked so hard when he was young. Remember the stories of him sleeping at the stadium? But after the '07 season he flat out quit on the team and he admitted it.
He didn't work out because he was holding out for a trade. Link for "getting out of training camp" being why he delayed surgery?
Btw, if he was never good after the '07 season, how did he make the Pro Bowl in '09? Did he go back to trying?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
