Pretty much the only people virtue signaling about "making fun" of Lawson's injury are the ones who ripped the Bengals for not "paying to keep their own top players".

I like Lawson a lot.  I was constantly defending him against fans who claimed he was not that good because sacks are the onlky pressure stat that matters.  But I also said we should not give a guy like him a big long term deal.  This injury means that Carl has only had 3 healthy seasons in 8 years ('14-'21), and it will be the second time he has missed an entire season.

Hendrickson may not be a better player than Lawson, but I am glad we gave him the big long term deal.  There are no guarantees, but the odds are much better that Trey will stay healthy.
