A lot of times PS players are guys who hardly ever stay in the league more than 1-2 years and here is a guy who was a projected 1st Round pick in 2016. He was acquitted of his legal issues, so in my opinion, the "character concerns" label should be lifted until he proves otherwise. From my research, it seems he's actually lost weight vs gained it being out of football(270 now vs 290 at the 2016 combine), so a whole offseason of NFL strength & conditioning while literally paying a guy peanuts and who knows what we might have in 2020.I'm only expecting a few die-hards to chime in but thoughts are appreciated.</blockquote>
