Every bama back you named has been plagued with injuries since their arrival in the league.


Breaking News : NFL running backs get hurt often and have short careers

- Henry played 15 games his first year
- Yeldon has averaged 14 games a year (and played 12+ games both seasons)
- Ingram has averaged 13 games a year (and played 10+ games every season)

The only one who has missed significant time is Eddie Lacy, and that was because of a specific foot injury. His prior 3 years he played every game but 2 (46 of 48 regular season games).

Long story short, you are wrong, again.

They have all battled injuries dated back to their college years, sorry if you don't want to admit that.

Along with the majority of NFL running backs, yes.

Ingram has already lasted longer than the average NFL RB, Lacy is getting close and Yeldon in all likelihood will as well. But hey, Saban is mean and stuff!

You're sidestepping the point, the injuries that these guys are dealing with in the NFL are from injuries dated back to college. If they were given time to properly heal, maybe they wouldn't still be dealing with them.

Which ones? Give me some specifics for each of the players you have stated have nagging college injuries that have been hurting them in the NFL.

Mark Ingram - knee problems
Eddie Lacy- foot
Yeldon - ankle problems

All have been injuries dated back to bama that still plague them, keep sidestepping. In fact all three of these players slipped in the draft because of injury concerns.

What leads to lack of success for Auburn players while at Auburn?

Mark Ingram - knee problems


Mark Ingram hasn't had a single knee issue in the NFL. Please, link them to me. I'd be happy to see them. His NFL injuries have been : turf toe, foot, hand, shoulder, concussion.

quote:

Eddie Lacy- foot


Eddie Lacy's foot issue was a turf toe. He has shown no turf toe issues in the NFL. His NFL injuries were ankles, concussions, groin and ankle again.

quote:

Yeldon - ankle problems


Yeldon sprained his ankle twice in college and then sprained it half-way through the 2016 season with the Jags.



So, once again, ridiculous.

You have google, look them up. Every one of these players slipped in the draft because of the amount of injuries they were racking up.

Which have not affected them at all in the NFL.

It's sad to be this obsessed with trying to drag down somebody else with #fakenews.

Keep telling yourself that, but a quick search tells me otherwise. It's sad to be blinded from the facts.

Cool, show us the results of your search that notes how Alabama NFL players are suffering from lingering college injuries. Sounds like you got a bounty of google hits.

You are the one spewing fake stories. You prove it or otherwise we will continue to think you are a liar.

It's a strange shtick. He says blatantly false things then calls everyone else dumb and tells them to prove him wrong.

Doesn't seem fun at all to me, but to each his own I guess.

It's as simple as this, I could give you link after link but you're a homer and would never blame Saban for any wrongdoings.

Snowflakes these days, they have to try to be relevant when they have nothing. If you are going to spew false agendas then have something to back it up, instead of un uh, you look it. Children these days, LOL.
