Wait, you think Acuff is coming back?

Oh my sweet summer child.

Right. Anyone thinking there is the slightest chance he returns is kidding themselves. He played most of the year injured. It would not be a smart business decision to even consider it.

By the way, I feel like this is the reason why he got the signature deal. Because he is a great kid. He plays with incredible toughness and fortitude and he insists on playing. He is a very likeable player and is essentially the antithesis of modern players (coughs, LeBron, coughs) who will flop and sit out over a hang nail. That kind of shite isn't in this kids constitution.

Good for him.
