When you get in your 30's you just have to train differently than guys in their early 20's.

Hopefully teams know that.

Well, there's a phrase we've never heard before ... Sean Lee, injured.

 

[Aftershock]

Just retire already

 

[cowboyblue22]

well thats usual him being injuried his whole time in the league he has been injuried

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Not a good sign......this actually surprises me a bit. You would think Sean would know his body/limits more than anyone, especially at his age.

 

[Section446]

Not a shocker with Lee, at some point, we need to just fully move on. It's too bad that his body turned on him, he had a shot at being something special.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Actually, other than 2018, he really hasn't missed a lot of games over the last 4-5 years. See for yourself......I was surprised a bit coz it sure seemed like more. Granted he's never started all 16 games but he's played more full-season than I realized.

Just a heads up that everyone in the NFL has injuries right now. I know Lee has a history as well, but everyone is getting back into shape.

When Sean Lee lifts the Lombardi Trophy after we (Dallascowboy) win Superbowl next year... I will cry for 3 days straight.

Love Sean Lee, I got over his injury stigma because he becomes a defacto Coach on the sidelines and off field.

If his body was as tough as his mind and heart, he would have been a hall of famer. Sucks because he works so hard. You'd think his body would adapt to the stresses. Maybe his DNA is damaged on this area of building stronger tissues.

 

[glimmerman]

How bad..

 

[Sydla]

This is really disappointing and unexpected.

 

[OmerV]

How bad..

It didn't come across from McCarthy as a big concern.

Injured while strengthening and conditioning … drills designed, in part, to prevent injury

 

[Hennessy_King]

I got bashed all offseason for me saying we should cut him. Not only is he not the player he was, you knew he was not gonna be reliable. Put him on the staff already if you are so in love with the guy. Waste of $4.5m

 

[blueblood70]

once again nothing to see here like TS all the knee jerker sky is falling responses, if there were a game sunday, my bet all would play other then McCoy..these are soft tissue injuries , pulls, strains, and tweaks which is normal and happening all around the klegue..just because TS and Lee have had injurys history its being over exposed to media and fans.. man can 2020 end ughh

Chase young , Tyreke Hill and man many other names are out with dings..smh

My belief was he was worth taking a risk on - $4.5 million is pretty cheap for the potential reward - but the team shouldn't count on him to the extent there is no capable alternative. With his injury history it would be foolish for the team to not protect itself. I'm not sure if they have done that though. Thomas looks good in the limited time he gets, but I'm not sure how that would play out with a bigger role.

 

[Bullflop]

How bad..

Bad enough to the point where he was noticeably limping very badly recently.

Lee has this habit of his mind telling him to do things that his body objects to.

I'm slowly arriving at a stage where I'd as soon see Luke Gifford getting reps.

Yea but this doesn't really do justice to how many games he left early or was completely limited. There's another dozen or so games where he played fewer than 20 snaps.

Figured this was going to happen. Everyday I don’t hear his name being mentioned was a good one..
