I hate to be that guy but he’s proven he doesn’t have Superman genes

 

he had his leg stepped on in practice and didn’t play for a month 

Or by a horse.  Either one.

I mean compared to your average American guy then maybe he’s not what you’d class as fat, but for a professional athlete he undoubtably has a gut. Not saying it’s a bad thing, the majority of DT guys have guts, just that I don’t think doing different training to Joel Romero is the reason he doesn’t have the same 6 pack like Joel as Aaron Donald is also like a Greek God and did football not MMA training

I hear ya. Just meant for a dt he’s definitely not fat

Put him in bubblewrap until the playoffs.

I feel like he's back for the playoffs.  It seems like every player that gets a long term injury these days is coming back sooner than expected - medical advances are outpacing conventional wisdom on recovery times.

I'm afraid that him suddenly being dressed and him actually being effective are two completely different things.

Agree - although I guess you never know 🙏

 

Definitely been a couple guys who have come back "early" from torn biceps / triceps and ripped it off again first game as they rushed it too much to try and get back for post season - it's just not had enough time to actually reattach (Brandon Graham was one, can't remember the other)

If Ed tries to play again this year the odds of him tearing his bicep worse than last time and requiring surgery are really high, which would mean his offseason would be impacted and he'd likely show up to camp in much worse condition. Lots of ifs there but I'd bet actual money on that outcome.
