He is one of the few big men in the NFL to actually lose weight, and maintain his playing ability. I'd say that he knows what he's doing, he's a smart man. It's not like he's some washed up has-been that is just hangin' on for one more paycheck. The guy is still a great Tackle.
I agree, but time will catch up with him. 35 is very old for an NFL player, and basically ancient for a lineman. Yes, he still plays at an exceptionally high level, but father time will catch up with him sooner versus later. That's why I said you hope he makes it through the second year of a two year deal.
