I get the frustration, but I think people are too hard on him. He's a big man, agile for his size. It's not like hes faking it.

I, for one, don't think he's faking it. But he is way too fragile. Being injury prone isn't just bad luck, it's also a bit of clumsiness. Poor body control leads to awkward falls and injuries. Which is exactly what happened yesterday. Sometimes you can't avoid it, but it's ridiculous how often he's hurt.

I think he hurt himself trying to avoid plummeting on top of Brees. Good job big fella for not injuring your QB. Too bad he got hurt in the process. Get well SOON, your team needs you.
