That should be all she wrote. Hope he heals up well and has a wonderful life post football. He was sure fun to watch.

To add insult to injury, Taysom in his usual style of play gave up his body to pick up a 4th and one and we still couldn't punch it in and tie the game.

34. That’s about done for players not coming off injury. Not 100% certain. But odds not in his favor

He also doesn’t have the typical “34 year old” mileage on him due to his role.

I hope he’s back.

This is what I’m holding on to, myself. He was out doing Mormon mission things and didn’t start playing as a pro til he was 27, as opposed to the usual ~22 when many guys start their careers. If that 5-year difference scans backward fully, he’d be entering next season with the experience level of a ~30-year-old. A 30-year-old with an injury history, but still. One can hope. Here’s to hoping.

At 34. I fear he’s done. Electric football player and made for some fun football.

I think you're right. He'll be 35 next season. With the injury history, and all the knee problems he's had in the past.....probably be the smart move to retire while he can still walk.

Who's not giving up their body to gain yardage, its football.

He's an absolute freak, so I will never say never, but I think this most likely spells the end.

Not even close to McCallum's injury

Yeah McCallum’s injury was so bad the surgeon warned him they might have to amputate his leg it was so bad of an injury had the surgery not gone well.

for the folks saying he's 34 but doesn't have as much mileage..... the dude plays special teams ON TOP of everything else... Dude has parsecs.

Yes,he severed an artery and could have bled to death if not for prompt attention. It was the worst I've ever seen.
It was far worse than Theisman's broken leg.

Yep. Tore every knee ligament, tore the hamstring and calf off the bone. All no with damage to an artery I believe.

Just how the heck did Taysom hold onto that ball after getting that hit.

Because given the situation he going to get the 1st down injured knee be damned

What does this have to do with how fast he can do the Kessel Run?
