Everyone knows what they say to WRs over the middle and LBers in coverage, right?
"Head on a swivel"
What do y'all think that 'swivel' is, fellas?!?
If the guy can't turn his head, he can't play football. He's trying. I think he'll give it a go on Sunday. But man, when those nerves get fired up, they're REALLY hard to calm down. I have a bad C7 and if that disc pinches, it's a pretty acute problem for 3-5 days and a lingering problem that can be aggravated fairly easily for another week or so after that.
I feel for the guy. He knows this is his moment. It's his time to shine in a matchup that could REALLY allow him to stand out. Athleticism vs. athleticism vs a guy largely considered one of the most athletic players in the league at any position in Lamar Jackson.
Well, except for by the Ravens fans, who insist he's just really smart.
But setting them aside for a moment, Gay could stand out on a national stage here by doing what he's best at. And his body isn't wanting to cooporate.
That suuuuuuuuucks for him.
I know he's probably gone but I'll miss him. Dude's energy is awesome and he's been a lot of fun to have in KC. I hope he gets out there and kicks ass on his way to a massive bag somewhere.

Even if Willie plays, it is hard to imagine him moving around at full speed and making the type of plays he can make when healthy.
