He was an amazing athlete recruited by Alabama but was hurt several times in his time in Tuscaloosa.
He dropped in the draft because he was hurt a lot.
He missed the beginning of training camp with COVID-19 precautions.
He was injured in camp and needed 3-4 weeks off.
He has never played in any NFL games; no preseason.
And we expect him to come in and be a major force/factor?
Seems unrealistic to me...
One or two a year do. Most don't. A random decent example is Justin Houston. As a rookie with KC he had 5.5 sacks, which is actually pretty good for a rookie pass rusher. In his 4th year he had 22. That story--starting out slow--is the more typical one. The guy who gets 8 or more sacks as a rookie? Again that's just 1 or 2 guys a year, and not typical at all.
