Taysom Cannot Handle the Load (1 Viewer)

He's so great as a jack-of-all trades but his body just cannot handle the extended role he's been given.

Sadly looks to be the case. He has low mileage but is 34 years old.

Without data this take says nothing. Any player can get injured on any play regardless of snap count. Is he playing more snaps than usual?

Very true. Especially at his age.

Agree. He is 34 years old, had many injuries in College. Last week someone mentioned about Taysom playing TE would help the position group alot.

I said its a mistake to count on Taysom. He is more a player that causes defenses confusion and gives a layer to the teams offense.

The fact he is still in the NFL is a testament to his abilities and fortitude.

I mean, didn’t a whole mess of dudes fall on him?

Taysom shouldn’t have to carry the load.
His role should be as one of many weapons on offense.

He got injured 647 times in college and is used as a bulldozer on the majority of the plays he's involved in. I hope that satisfies the curiosities that your brain has while you ignore what your eyes have seen for nearly a decade.

This. KInda hard when the Failclowns big guys are jumping all over him while he’s down.

There is an overwhelming amount of data that would support that a 34yr old football player is more susceptible to injury than the average player!

Yes, he has been and has been used in a more physically demanding role than before.

Hopefully Kendre is healthy. You can’t expect Hill and Kamara to make it through a grueling 18 game season unscathed.

 

[Saint Greg]

We need another running back. Hopefully Kendre can be that guy. Starting next year I think we need to spend a round 3-5 pick on a running back every year if we’re going to run this offense where we want to run it 30+ times every game.

He's already injured and plus he's a aging vet like many on the team
