The way that we use him, or maybe he's always nursing something. Will this be his career, dare I even mention another PSU player that played for the Cowboys in Sean Lee???? Please give your thoughts, we all hope he's going to be on the field often!!

I think we need to decide how we're going to use him. If he's going to be a hybrid linebacker-defensive end we're going to have to limit his time in the trenches. If we're going to leave him in the trenches we need to increase his time in the weight room during the off season. 245 lb just isn't going to cut it as a down lineman, he's going to have to bulk up to about 260 lb if he wants to survive.

But to answer your question OP, I don't see him as an injury prone player.

He has not missed a game all season.

He has played 80% of snaps vs 62% for DLaw.

Do you ever consider reading your posts before submitting them...

Linebackers get hurt. It's what they do. There's not a lot you can do about it except understand it's going to happen and make sure you have depth.
Undersized pass rushers get worn down. It's what they do. It's why they often get used as passing-down specialists.
Micah presents a unique problem in player management. You can get good value using him as an off-ball linebacker, but his maximum impact is as a pass rusher. The more you rush him, the more rest you need to give him. It's going to be a challenging usage problem, but of course it's a good problem to have.

The place you won't get good answers to this is this board. If you put most Zoners through a version of the marshmallow challenge, it would play out like this:
Tester: "When you press this button, Micah will line up as a pass rusher on the next play. But if you press it too often, he'll get worn dow---"
Zoner: [Starts mashing button with both hands, faster than an extreme metal drummer]
Tester: "It's May, the season doesn't start for 4 mo--"
Zoner: [Wraps button in duct tape so it always stays pressed]

Im not sure if MP has felt right in the belly for several weeks, despite everything else, bumps and dings.
How many times have we heard MP dealing with an illness.
Some bug is lingering.

Micah is human freak. I think Quinn is totally unrealistic with his vision for Micah as a defender. Something has to give and I hope it's not Micah's health.

Yes. Consistently lining him up against players who are significantly bigger will take its toll.

Dallas drafted a MLB situation rusher and made him a full time DL. What could go wrong?
