I had that exact thought soooo many times while watching him.
Then I convinced myself that I was being delusional— no NFL LB would possibly do that.
I truly feel that he just wants to save his body while still making NFL money. Pretty sad, honestly
I don't think its about saving his body. He couldn't even push the sled in training camp. He has no strength and power in that damaged leg and he fears he will get trucked and embarrassed if he takes on RBs head on in the gap. That will ruin his reputation and marketing ability going forward. He simply wants to run and chase and rack up tackles in the box score so he can claim he is still an elite player and be able to market his businesses. All of that goes away with 2 or 3 highlights on sportscenter of him getting trucked.
