Are we even sure that Williams was fully healthy when he was drafted? 

Out of the 47 OL who bench pressed at the Combine, only 15 did less than Jonah Williams.

I'm not saying it was torn when he was drafted, but would it be out of the question that he had something nagging him, didn't mention it (millions of dollars on the line) and the Bengals missed it? It would explain the weakness. I mean shit, they missed Antonio Bryant's knee somehow and everyone in the world knew that was terrible.

It's not like the Bengals front office and medical staff have earned the benefit of the doubt.

I also haven't seen any video where Williams "fell awkwardly" and tore his pec.

There is a full medical exam before being allowed to participate at the combine. He also had 9 practices before missing final 3 of rookie mini camp. This has nothing to do with scouting and drafting. I'm guessing it's a weight room injury.


To OP: Another first round pick misses most of their first season its like a jinx now.
