Yeah - and the knee isn't even my biggest worry with Humphries.
It's his back.
He hurt his back in 2022. And by most accounts, his performance in 2023 didn't recover to the level he was in 2019 and 2020 (or where he was prior to his injury in 2022).
Back injuries for big guys linger for quite awhile and in many cases never really go away. A lot of them have to drop a little weight or train less strenuously to avoid aggravation and it just creates less effectiveness. And it's hard to trust that not popping back up at some point.
