They told him at the end of last season that he needs to report in the best shape of his life, or he'll be cut. staff said he showed up completely out of shape.

Kid's going to have a very brief NFL career if he doesn't get his act together, and quick.
He has All-World physical talent coupled with an all-nothing brain.

He can play. He just doesn't want to work.

He can play but it's very soft & you're correct about not wanting to work.
Maybe Chase can light a fire under his arse.

I saw him at a youth camp in Springfield a couple months ago and I thought he looked like he was in peak shape. Then again, I don't spend much time around professional athletes so what do I know.

Just my opinion, but I think they wanted him uber dedicated in the off season and ready to take the next step both mentally and physically, and so far in camp he's not showing it. To trade a 2nd rounder who didn't have a terrible rookie season, he must be showing them very little mental stamina.
His measurables alone should have warranted a 5th,6th round draft pick in the trade, and all they settled for was OL depth? There's more to the story than a few extra pounds.

How was using his own car to give people rides for a extra spending cash during the off-season going to make him a better football player?
Seems the Eagles are to blame for suggesting such a dumb off-season pursuit.
