But I dint think he's particularly injury prone. He just plays the position in a rough way and doesn't protect himself like other receivers. But he's always played that way.

Every player is susceptible to injuries, but Julio Jones has certainly had some injuries that not only force him to miss time, but play through them well under 100%.

In 2015, he has a troubled hamstring that showed signs of limiting him last week. Looking like it will again this week.

In 2014, he suffered a hip pointer and missed a game.

In 2013, his season ended after re-fracturing the same foot that he ran through during the Combine.

In 2011, he missed three games with a troubled hamstring.

This doesn't detract from how tough of a player he is, but these were all non-contact injuries, right?
