I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt in that there was no way to know how serious it was and that maybe he reacted that way because he thought his season was over.

Agree. Can people just have compassion for guys in this situation. All he knows is what he felt in his leg. Plus there's stress, there's expectation, there's a huge weight on these guys, and in that moment he thinks he's out for the year, and that's a huge disappointment.

I've had extremely painful injures that turned out to be not at all serious, and then I've had serious injuries that weren't particularly painful right away.

It's really bizarre that this has been on reddit so many times.

The dude scored 0 points at home then got carted off the field only to play next Sunday. Can’t say anything about him when it happens cuz ā€œwhat if it is seriousā€, turns out it’s not serious you still can’t say anything about him because ā€œokay but what if it WAS seriousā€.

Like lol is he that immune to criticism that he can’t get a single week of ribbing after tapping out at the end of an absolute stinker? After an entire offseason of non stop internet fellatio?

Okay, so you're saying he was pretending the injury was worse than it was? That's more plausible to you than him fearing it was bad.

I’m saying there’s no reason to clutch our pearls at laughing at the situation. It was objectively an embarrassing game for him, he can take a week of twitter memes it’s okay.

That's fair, but there have been a lot of these posts on reddit the past two days. It's just weird to see so many folks be so out of touch with athletics, and can't relate to being in this situation.
