Can't guard Mike if Mike doesn't ever step foot on the field.

So I’m no contract expert but do we have to pay this frickstick full salary when he doesn’t play ?


Absolutely, until he’s cut and then he keeps what was guaranteed.

Once MT signed his big contract, he was never going to play for a white QB ever again.

I can’t think of anyone that missed full seasons (and off-season) with a sprained ankle followed by a dislocated toe.

Either he has the luck of being struck by lightning on a sunny day or he’s playing games

The Salary cap forces team to eat the injured players contract. They can rehab and trade the players because of the cap hit the team would also have to eat.

mean…are y’all insinuating he purposely got hurt & will need surgery?


I don’t get it either. It’s not like he jammed his finger or something. Toes can end WR careers. Kills his trade value.

There’s no sensible MO for him to be dramatic about this.

Some people don’t like playing football

Just like some people don’t like being accountants

Is it a stretch to think this guy doesn’t really want it?

How do you rehab a second toe?

Toe curls with mini dumbbells?
Toe stretches?

Also, how do you dislocate just your second toe when it’s in a shoe? What happened to the other toes?

This injury is so strange

It would be career suicide for him to have missed so many games in his prime earning years


Or he decided $60m is enough money to live in before getting into other ventures and he just doesn’t want to play more.

Words like tough, determined, and competitor no longer describe him like early in his career. Dude is literally a money stealing pussy at this point.

this man was literally shot twice and came back in 4 weeks

On August 28, 2022, Robinson was shot in the knee and glute during an attempted carjacking involving two men after leaving a restaurant in the Near Northeast neighborhood of Washington, D.C. shortly before 6 p.m. EDT.[17] He suffered no life-threatening damage and was discharged from MedStar Washington Hospital Center the following day.[18] Robinson missed the first four games of the season before making his NFL debut in Week 5 against the Tennessee Titans, where he rushed 9 times for 22 yards.[19] His first career touchdown came the following week against the Chicago Bears.[20]

We have to find a way to flip MT for draft capital soon.

You can always trade him to the Bengal for a healthy Michael Thomas. He'll, they have two! 2/1 trade
