Really concerned that playing in the CFBCG permanently damaged this guy’s body, y’all. https://t.co/VCADo7Ku2b

Earlier Friday, Waddle signed his rookie contract with the Dolphins. The No. 6 overall pick’s deal is worth $27,085,996 fully guaranteed. He is also receiving a signing bonus worth $17,058,904.
Hopefully sarcastic but if not, Rob Pearson should stick with accounting, he’s orthopedic ignorant.
I read it as sarcasm but could be wrong
Good. I tried to but could not be sure. So many Saban critics still accuse him of risking Jaylen’s career.
Don’t think it was Sabans decision but if it were me, I wouldn’t have played just because of the risk. Glad it didn’t hurt him long term. He definitely didn’t look 100 percent in champ game
After the Vol game, Jaylen vowed to return before the season’s end. The medical staff cleared him to practice and then to play. He was determined to play in the NC but ultimately it was Coach Saban’s decision to put him in the game. His ankle was very sore throughout practice for the playoffs. Jaylen insisted and Coach Saban relented, allowing him to play a few plays. Thing is, the medical staff, Jaylen, and Saban knew that his “bad” ankle was actually stronger than his good ankle. The risk of re-injury was nominal, just sore as he!!, limiting his effectiveness.
