I understand the jokes in here and I am laughing along with them. But honestly, watching where KBs career has gone just makes me sad man.

After his rookie year, we all thought we had our WR1. He didn’t have strait line burner speed but was damn fast for his size. Huge frame and catch radius. Winning tons of jump balls. 
 

Obviously losing his mother isn’t an excuse for his demise but that isn’t easy for anyone and imo it likely was the start of the snowball effect for him. A serious injury sidelining him. 

Dude is 30 now. So sure, he’s a full grown man. But as a 31 year old, I understand what it’s like to look back at your last 10 years and wonder what might have been. You make a lot of dumb f***ing mistakes in your 20s. In his case he’s probably looking back at how his career started and the incredible opportunity that, let’s be honest, he has largely wasted in his 20s. Compounded by losing a mother, social media mocking him for weight he gained in the aftermath, people going from praising him to calling him a bust.

Again, none of these things are excuses and I’m not making excuses for him. He handled adversity poorly and he f***ed up. But, I feel for him. He’s a human. I know I have plenty of mistakes I’ve made in the last decade and they never cost me millions, derailed my life’s work and I never lost my mom.

I hope that dude can get his head right. Even if he’s done in the NFL, I hope he can find a way to come to peace with how that last few years have gone. Best of luck KB.

Beginning to wonder if he has some CTE stuff going on already?

 

I would bet just a lot of demons he never worked through. Season long injury, mother passing, anger and now looking back at age 30 feeling like you wasted your golden opportunity NFL career. It could be CTE, but that’s hard for anyone to overcome. He may just be in a dark place and hasn’t found help to sort through it all.

What could've been...

I'll always wonder where we would've gone as a franchise had KB not torn his ACL that preseason and then came off the rails after losing his mom. He was emerging as a dominant WR. Instead, he veered off the path, got lazy, and that laziness directly led to Cam's career altering shoulder injury then he blamed everyone else for his problems.

CTE? He played a season and a half. His mom dying 5 years ago? He had work ethic issues long before that.

Some of you just can’t accept that some people just don’t have it and/or are dickheads.

Theres HS and college players that develop CTE. He very well could have developed it.

 

That said, I think it's a combo of emotional immaturity and bitterness/resentment over his mothers death.  Also some narcissistic poo kinda like DeAngelo. 

 

At the end of the day you are a grown ass man, act like one.

 

All that said, KB was one of my favorite players and I'm still disappointed and sad that it didn't work out.

Yeah, I didn't mean to come off callous. I loved him his rookie season. I think the excuse making has been a bit overdone though. The way he threw shade at Cam was extremely uncool. Everything he's done since his rookie season has made me lose all respect for him.

      I went to McDonald's at lunch got a combo for $12. It was ok. The next day I ordered lunch from Cracker Barrel got the broccoli cheddar chicken, steak fries, and 2 biscuits paid $12 with tip. Guess which was better.

      Goodbye chain gang?

      I don't think so. I think once you're measuring electronically, the spot is where the sensor says it is. So if it says half yard short of the line to gain, that's the spot. Now how that works with scrums and the ball moving on two minute drills and poo is anybody's guess.
