Disclaimer: they say that if he injured the meniscus before Pittsburgh and tried to play through it, it would explain his play. They don't outright say he did. PFF said something similar. Basically said that his statistical dropoff was do abnormal that it almost can't be explained by anything but an injury.

Yeah I see most people saying he injured the knee in that game. Some say he was out of shape before PIttsburgh. He could have had a different injury before the game, not the knee. I like the Talib theory, which says that many players did not work as hard in that off-season and may have backslid. Also the OL did not play together in the pre-season and they started the season out of sync and rusty. Or it could be all of the above.
But as others said, they kept him, so, there's a good chance they believe he can play and that 2019 happened for reasons they know about, reasons that do not have them doubting he can play in 2020.
