I know it's easier to make blanket statements, but think back to the last time he was hurt and the D was getting gouged by running backs. He came back...and that stopped.
Agreed. He has been one of our best run defenders for a long while and in the right game, situation he has been an asset.
However even as a supporter of his something is up this year so this injury news is not particularly a surprise.
Did not realize the contract/cap situation with Rey for next year. Difficult to see which way they go..if Vigil shows nothing then they cannot move Burfict and so we still are short at LB...I am up for a Rd1-2 LB selection
