Overshown has been one of the bright spots all year

[88sAndHeartbreak]

And it still doesn't matter how he gets injured. Only that he does every season.

Bathe in it.

lol

 

[Cowboys5217]

Always injured.

Just Like Vander Esch before him, and Sean Lee before him. McClay has a gift for finding teases that look good, but can't stay healthy.

 

[pansophy]

The injury appears serious. According to McCarthy it’s not looking good.

Thanks

 

[Vegas_Cowboy]

Can I pray for him to play a full season for once instead?

 

[DandyDon52]

well too bad for him, he was having a good season, and making a name for himself.
Hope it isnt real bad.

Good news is cowboys dont need him rest of way, as it doesnt matter now that cowboy cant make playoffs

 

[Floatyworm]

Everybody pray for this man tonight. For him first and foremost, and also for this team. He has been one of maybe three bright spots all year

I'll say this.....Time for him to ditch the unlucky #13......and get that #0.

Kid needs a fresh start.....

Another perspective: Overshown wins with athleticism. With two ACL tears, how much of that can you expect him to lose. You may find him a liability next time he sees the field

I never said it was chronic but he got injured in some way every season but one. He even opted out of a bowl game. Some peoples bodies can take the wear and tear better than others.

He had 3 injury free seasons out of 5 in college. A back injury had him out for 4 games as a soohmore. And his fourth season he missed one game. You said he had injuries basically every season since high school. He wasn't injury prone on college. Not even close.

 

[HanD]

Sean Lee kept getting different injuries

He missed 5 games in five seasons of college. That wasn't a concern coming out. Yesterday was bad luck having a lineman fall on you like that. It doesn't show fragility.

 

[StuckMojo]

Lots of leg injuries this year for us.

Gonna have hit FA and/or draft for LB help

 

[CTcowboy203]

Sucks. In a terrible year he was a bright spot and if it’s as serious as advertised likely misses most of next season.

 

[StarBoyz83]

Bummed about overshown 2 serious injuries in 16 months.

 

[SuspectCorner]

If we did not have bad luck we would have no luck at all

which is fine with me

Gloom despair and agony on me
deep dark depression - excessive misery…

Wouldn't wish this on any football player, no matter who they play for.

Hopefully this young man was somewhat wise and saved his money.

Too many young guys in the NFL IMO end up making a couple of million dollars when they first enter the NFL and get spend happy.

Between gifts for parents, "friends" and themselves (not even including agent fees and other associated costs), it can add up quick as far as total expenditures on things they don't need, but want and buy because they can. Something like this (injury) comes along and could basically end a young promising career and half of what they made / make is already gone on stupid crap.

This is why I hate rookie contracts thanks to Jawalrus Russell. NFL window for earnings is short for many players. 5 years or less. They should get the money while they can. Rookie deals are hot garbage for high impact positions such as running backs and linebackers who have a short shelf life.

 

[atlantacowboy]

He's looking like Sean Lee 2.0. Great player but not available too often.

 

[Section446]

Great talent but he's always hurt, can't build around him. With that said, I fully expect Jerry to give him the biggest contract in NFL history for an LB.

 

[jwitten82]

This is not even close to being true. He missed four games his sophomore year and one his senior year. That's 5 games in five seasons. All different injuries too so it's not like a chronic condition.
Man, the nonsense facts that get put up around here for a fake narrative....

Why do some of yall act "injury prone" doesn’t exist. If he's missed some time at every point in his career, then it doesn’t matter how it happened, it's that it happened. It reminds me of when some fans tried to say Romo wasn't injury proned. Lol wth

 

[MountaineerCowboy]

Injury prone.

Not reliable.

Move on when you can.
