The point is, he's more than healthy enough to play. And it's been that way for quite some time. He just doesn't to play here, for this team, in a contract year. The risk is way too great, with little to no reward. Contrary to what some say, he's not driving up his market value with a few decent games. And it is more likely that by joining this team, paired with this roster, that he drives that market down. So he sits...
I really can't understand how some of you can be so gulliable to believe he's actually injured enough to not be able to pass a physical. Lingering soreness or not, sprains don't trigger a fail. Typical recovery is 4-6 weeks. 8 if you're being super cautious. We are now going to week 21. 21!!!!
Wake up!
You are just making all of this up.
First, it is very possible that there were unforeseen complications from the surgery, or even that he re-injured it in some way. It is absurd to claim these things never ever happen.
Second, yes he is driving his price up by playing a few games. What is the highest free agent contract ever given to a player who has missed 25 straight games. NFL teams are just much smarter than y9u. They understand that it is very possible that there were complications from the surgery or some sort of ne injury.
