These kids aren't playing for relatively meaningless championships. They're playing for millions of dollars.

This isn't a hard decision for anyone who is actually in the position to make it.

Of course, that won't stop a bunch of overweight construction workers who peaked in high school from talking shite.

Wasn't he hurt last year too?


No, he was our leading WR. No. 2 and No. 3 were first round picks and balling out in the league

Missing out on both JSN and Bosa’s third years fricking stinks.

Exactly. Conditioning and timing would be a huge issue. He's also played less than one quarter of one game this year.

I know, I was just hoping to see JSN and Harrison Jr out there against UGA. It's a shame he's been injured


It's basically akin to not seeing Chase Young and Nick Bosa ball out together.

"I want to be out there competing with my brothers more than anything," Smith-Njigba told ESPN on Monday. "The decision to turn pro was made after I was unable to come back on multiple occasions during the season and the doctors determined I would be unable to participate in the playoffs."


This is his actual quote. Sounds like he wasn’t cleared to play. Different than opting out

Dude doesnt want to get killed by UGA

Pay him all that NIL money and wont even play for a natty


He’s tried coming back multiple times this season. And his doctors are advising him to keep resting. Glad you know his personal situation though.

Wilson and Olave were asked which of them was better. They both said JSN.

People thought they were joking.

Dude was the leading receiver from a group that included the #10 and #11 picks in the draft.

Why not keep rehabbing and see if you can get back? Maybe even just for a potential title game? I mean if you can't play because of injury are you actually going to be doing anything of substance in terms of draft preparation? Poor optics.

If he's injured then this shouldn't even be a discussion.
