If memory serves I believe Bobbie Williams was somewhat of an Ironman during his time with the Bengals. Prior to ending his career in Stripes with a broken ankle; I think the only time he missed was 2 games for am emergency appendectomy during the season.
In a related story. A few years back I woke up the Friday after Thanksgiving positive I had gotten food poisoning the day prior. I laid on the coach in agony all weekend. I was in a Military School at that time and was almost at graduation, so I didn't want to go to the hospital. But when I showed up Monday morning I could barely walk. They made me go to the emergency room and from there I had to have emergency surgery.
Luckily I was in a situation similar to Maverick and had already done enough to graduate.
