One thing to say he's injury prone and a whole other thing to pretend he's not out there working when he was literally featured in a tv show about his training and has done a bunch of videos related to his workouts.
He is Mr Glass.
He needs to be productive to win.
he has bad injury luck including getting shot in college i dont think he missed a single game i wouldnt call him mr glass
He was in and out all last season because he kept trying to play before he was really ready. Every time he felt okay he really wasn't 100% and he would re-injure himself. Give him credit for trying to play when he wasn't really able but maybe he learned something. There's a difference between feeling okay and being 100%. I've had injuries that drag on and on because I never gave them a chance to heal properly. For football players this is always an issue. You want to be on the field so you push it. Then you get hurt again and people call you injury prone.
Some guys can play hurt and some can't.
Some also recover faster from injuries. There's a difference betwewen playing hurt and playing with an injury that prevents you from performing.
He was dancing like a knuckle head 2-3 weeks after the playoffs after having a lingering injury that had already taken him out for weeks during the regular season. He seems to be showing himself to be the type of player who's only effective on the field when he's close to 100% or he struggles. It's not a nock, that's just reality for some of these athletes.
ohhhh i didnt know a 1 min dance and playing WR at football takes the same amount of stress on the body
also he had a PCL injury this isnt like something you can play through as a WR its a ligament in the knee in a position that you are required to run
Just as an example because the injuries were both sprains to the PCL. Puka Nukua sprained his PCL week 1 of the 2024 season. Missed 7 games that season before coming back and when all was said and done was 10 yards short of another 1,000 yard season. He came back and pushed through the pain, he's a guy who doesn't have to be 100% to get it done...he came back and played well in their playoff games.
Pearsall on our team Injured sprained his pcl week 4 of the 2025 season. They rested him for a month and a half, 6 games before he played again and was completely ineffective catching 5 passes for 20 yards over the course of 3 games before they gave him another weeks rest at the later quarter part of the season. He comes back and plays well in his last two games against Chicago and Houston but somehow reaggravates his injury supposedly. Now lets mention why some of us are mad...after taking nearly 3 weeks rest between his last game and his only playoff game this season and for his career, after taking 20 days to rest between that last game of the season and the disaster that was the Seattle game in which he contributed 0 catches for 0 yards...he concluded his season only to post a series video's of himself dancing and flexing to the haters to show off his knees just weeks after that game. He's playing it up like he's already made it which he hasn't. He clearly can't play hurt at all. 2 years in he's yet to break 1,000 career yards receiving for a 1st round pick. He needs to show something this upcoming season not just to the fans but for this team, he's already blown his chance to be the #1 guy here. This team has clearly shown they don't trust the guys here by making our biggest and earliest move in F/A being M.Evans a veteran WR that keeps being brought up not only for his physical talent but maturity and ability to lead a receiving unit something many analysts say the team hopes will help develop the guys (Knuckle Heads) we currently have. Think of who we have that still needs development.
I like Pearsall with all that said...he's shown glimpses of potential and he had to start his career the hard way here with the shooting but he's running out of chances IMO and at some point this team is not going to resign him let alone give him a 5th year tag and let him walk if he doesn't figure it out. And a big part of that is availability and with that is staying healthy but still playing hurt when the team needs you and learning how to contribute when you're less than 100%. Just my opinion.
