That's one thing I never understood.

They spend hundreds of millions on these guys. Why not make sure the field they play on isn't actively ending seasons and possibly careers?

Same old story. When it comes to player safety, the NFL gets really cheap.

It's fucking wild. Now they pay a dude 3.5 mill to sit out. It's bonkers

I still think the Eagles should get an extra bye week for having to play there twice this season

I've never seen a player tear up like that. Generally the broadcast cuts away. Brutal to watch. Maybe they can hook him up with Aaron Rodgers doctor with that speedy Achilles recovery.
