It was a gruesome injury- i could not watch the replay after seeing it in real time.
Well, his move out of KC turns out to be a failed gamble on every point (unless you count $$$$ of course)

Players are smarter than the owners. They demand new contracts before the old ones expire knowing these injuries can come along and empty their bargaining power. Tyreek-$90 million with 54 million guaranteed. If he doesn’t play again that 54 million will come in handy while the league goes downhill. Injuries, bad calls, stupid penalties all keep the better teams from beating the bad teams. That’s just the way the NFL wants it. Soon there will be 18 games and more injuries. A season ending injury is a blessing in disguise for too many players. Same with playing poorly after cashing in.
I wonder how Bad Bunny is going to help out?

Just came to say the same thing! Should have stayed in KC.
Injuries happen there too. He gets carted off the field with the attitude: ‘I got mine. You get yours’. How many of them are really committed to winning knowing one big hit could deny their ability to walk for a lifetime?
Albert Haynesworth signed a huge contract then got injured. Rather than even trying to rehab he retired and keto something like $80M. Honestly, I would do the same.
I sure hope the Dolphins burn those hideous uniforms they wore last night.
Al Davis was dumb enough to draft JaMarcus Russell on physical traits alone. Walked away with $31 million-no injury. Todd Marinovich/Robt. Gallery-bonehead picks.
Think Eric Swan-Az. Cardinals. He put off his knee surgery to where recovery would not be sufficient to play that season. I thought he was giving up on the team but it appears his history dictated his decision. Perhaps the answer is to limit careers to x number of years.
That’s what the Long Term Injured Reserve tag is for. It takes the player’s income out of their salary cap calculations. And with him questionable for next year, that’s definitely an LTIR candidate.
NFL—Not For Long.
That injury is going to cut into the free time he has to speed around the stadium and ignore lawful orders from law enforcement.
The uniforms were not very dolphinny that’s for sure.
I think Hill had the worst weekend and Dart had the best.
Terrible news for Hill, for the Dolphins and for the NFL. He’s one of the fastest and most exciting receivers in the game, and the NFL is not known for excitement these days.

Standard NFL story. He got his big pay-day.
He’ll be out 1 year rehabbing his knee. He’ll be 32 at that point, and his performance won’t be where he was when was 25.
Dolphins will cut him, and some other team will pick him up as #3 or #4 WR for $ a couple million
He’ll then be out of the league within 2 years.
