In college did he ever finish a season? Not being snarky, just curious at this point, because the guy is either an injury factory or he's one of the unluckiest players in recent memory.

Per Wikipedia he did fine until his last year in college:

Niang was highly recruited coming out of high school. He had around 40 scholarship offers from schools including TCU, Penn State, Auburn, Miami, and Georgia, and decided to enroll at TCU. After enrolling at TCU in 2016, Niang played in 12 of the Horned Frogs' 13 games as a true freshman that fall. He became a starter midway through his sophomore season in 2017, helping lead the Frogs to the program's first-ever berth in the Big 12 Championship Game and a win in the 2017 Alamo Bowl over Stanford.[3]

Starting all 13 games at right tackle for TCU as a junior in 2018, Niang didn't allow a sack the entire season[4] and earned 2nd Team All-Big 12 honors [5] before helpling lead the Frogs to a win over California in the 2018 Cheez-It Bowl.[6]

Prior to his senior season, Niang was named 1st Team Preseason All-Big 12,[7] and The Athletic named him as one of the top offensive linemen in college football.[8] Hall of Fame NFL executive Gil Brandt has named Niang as one of the top offensive line prospects for the 2020 NFL Draft,[9] and ESPN draft expert Todd McShay has projected Niang as a first-round selection and best offensive tackle in the 2020 NFL Draft.[10]

Niang was forced to end his senior season early after TCU pulled out an upset win against the University of Texas in late October 2019. He had been advised by his doctor the week before to get surgery to repair a torn hip labrum he had been playing through since the beginning of the season to avoid the risk of a more severe injury.

Niang played as a true freshman in 12 games out of 13. He became a starter as a sophomore and in his 28 games and three-year span as a starter for TCU, he never allowed a single sack. Over that period, he only had two holding calls and no false starts.[11]
