    I think he planned on playing but got worried. This was the first "real" injury he had here. The first thing that caused him to miss practice and such. I could see it rattling him a bit. People bad mouthing the kid need to fucking grow up

    You need to fuck off.

    It was a business decision, I get that.

    But you still need to fuck off.
    ok I'll fuck off because you told me to. Call it a "bidness" decision.

    He’s a fucking quitter. He quit on the Coaches, his teammates and fans.

    Pete needs to put an equipment manager on him to ensure he doesn’t steal any UW property that doesn’t belong to him like #7 UW jerseys and shoes. Give him 5 min to clear out his shit.

    I’m not criticizing him for the decision ... it’s pretty transparent what happened at this point

    My point is that I hate the move as a player for a number of reasons.

    And I do think that there will be a point in time where the NFL changes their stance

    Like the honey badger, the nfl don't give a fuck.

    The cautionary tale for taking one for the team and playing in a bowl is Dallas Cowboys linebacker Jaylon Smith. At the end of the 2015 season, he suffered a catastrophic left knee injury, resulting in nerve damage and a torn ACL, in the Fiesta Bowl. A presumptive top-five pick before the bowl game, he dropped to the second round (No. 34 overall) of the 2016 draft. Being there one last time for his Notre Dame teammates cost him almost $19 million in guaranteed money on his rookie contract.

    It was the next season that running backs Christian McCaffrey and Leonard Fournette, both eventual top-10 picks, decided to sit out their teams’ bowl games, sparking the current trend.

    There has been the false cry that players who skip bowl games will be viewed negatively by NFL decision-makers or that path portends a lack of NFL success. This is a transparent attempt to shame players into not skipping bowls. UCF defensive coordinator Randy Shannon tried to peddle this flawed and self-serving logic recently. (It’s not uncommon for college coaches and their staffs to have bonuses in their contracts for winning bowl games.)

    This season, McCaffrey set the NFL record for receptions by a running back (107) on a team that missed the playoffs. He has yet to miss a game in his career. He finished third in the NFL in yards from scrimmage, behind Saquon Barkley and Ezekiel Elliott, both of whom elected to end their college careers in bowl games. There’s no correlation.
