The journey of Chris Ivory: Dismissed, discarded and, finally, celebrated

When they traded him, I had no problem with it because of his lack of durability.

Per nfl.com, from 2010 to 2012, CI only played 12, 6, and 6 games with the Saints. In 2014 and 2015, he played in 15 and 16 games. I was surprised at this sudden increase in durability with a change in teams. I wonder what caused it.

You have to wonder. Maybe it's just luck , but Byrd brought in his own doctor. I understand Keenan Lewis used Byrd's doctor in better diagnosing his hip issue. Maybe we have a deficiency in treatment and medical evaluation?
