A wise man with a great avatar. I'm not asking guys to go full homer but shit, he was average or better in every game as a first year starter coming off a year off and a hip injury. It's more likely he continues to improve than get worse. Why would you not root for the upside.

I agree with this assessment. While Wylie is widely panned on this forum, he was nowhere near the liability he was often scapegoated to be. He’ not all pro material, but he’s solid, versatile, reliable, and doesn’t bring drama. It’s hard to not root for a guy like that. I wish Chiefsplanet were as drama free as Andrew Wylie.

LoL, YES.

I have spent the last couple of weeks trying to figure this out. Thank you for explaining it.

isn't he supposed to be back by the end of training camp

just ****ing weird this guy was the toughest tackle chase young had ever faced in college and now he's just vanished into thin air for what seems like an eternity

we sure he doesn't have haglund's?

Spirit not into it.

Many say, that he is just here for a paycheck and will never amount to anything on the field. So far, they seem to be right.

Writers projected that. Minimal research shows that for big guys it’s 10-12 months for most big guys.


A mild tear can take up to six months to heal, while a full tendon rupture, with surgery, can take up to a year. Even after six weeks of immobilization, you will likely not be returning to your prior physical activity for at least a couple

I'd like to see him succeed, but he's only appeared in a handful of games and he was drafted 3 years ago. Probably just consider Wylie the RT

I think most of the criticism against Wylie is a little unfair. He was an undrafted free agent who's now on his fourth team in 5 years. For a journeyman depth-type player he filled in fairly well last year, especially since tackle is not his natural position IIRC

Whatever. If he ever plays and is good. He’ll be a cheap OL. We are 3 years out now where Creed and Trey are going to warrant top OL contracts. We don’t give it to them, other teams will gladly give them the contract.

Pretending vet Niang didn't happen is bad man

Realistically, we’ll sign one of them, but definitely not both.

I once met a man whose sister claimed that her neighbor went to an NFL game and saw Bob Sanders play. She said that he was playing running back for the Lions at the time.
