So he would've ruptured his Achilles for us?

He may very well have. Those acting like he wouldn't have are every bit as fallacious as anyone saying he would. I'd say it's more likely he would than wouldn't. How did it happen? Was there an underlying issue? He may very well have had an existing condition that predisposed him to the injury.

Either way, he is now hurt. He is still an undersized chucker that didn't fit our style. We replaced him with a comparable player that seems a better fit.

Win-win.
