Out of curiousity, I looked it up just to see if I could find it. I'm not seeing it.
2012 - 16 games played
2013 - 16 games played
2014 - 16 games played
2015 - 7 games played
2016 - 15 games played
2017 - Missed entire season
2018 - 16 games played
At first look, I thought maybe you were referring to 2015. But he didn't get hurt until week 4. Up until that point he had never missed a game. In 2017 he never saw action. I can't find anywhere where he was held out of the preseason and then got hurt in week 1.
Also, the obvious question is, even if he was hurt in week 1 after sitting out, how can you prove that occurred because he was nervous, or jittery, or rusty, and it wasn't just like every other injury, pure chance?
