Your body does break down and the more of a beating it takes the harder it is to heal. Sure it's my opinion but it is fact based (which is what I meant when I said factual opinion) and really not some hot take. It's basic anatomy. You've seen the end of great careers due to what you'd think was a minor issue all the time. Why? Because the injuries, the physical toll a sport takes all adds up.
Wrong, sort of. It started out as a calf injury, but it turned into an ankle injury:

Also, the injury did not force Luck to retire. Luck retired because he was tired of the injuries; he was certainly capable of recovering from the injury and continuing his career.
You making it sound like that a calf injury forced Luck to retire is just flat out wrong. Are you eager to see Burrow retire or something?
