This reminds me of Jon Baldwin running at night before the season…

videos like that are kinda dumb. A guy who wants to be a pro athlete is running up an incline in the offseason! Just once though

Well, he didn't have his shirt fashioned into a bra in the front and didn't resemble Richard Simmons trying to get away from a mob of old ladies. I'd say it is a pretty safe bet that that isn't Clay.

Well he didn't get injured doing it so that's progress in some ways.

This dude has played 10 games in 3 years and some think he's going to be a legit contributor.

Exactly. And if he played for a division rival, most of the same folks would call him a broke dick. But I guess that's how it's supposed to work.

Tyreek Hill ran up a hill in the offseason then got traded away after helping us win just one super bowl. No ****ing thanks. Discard this trash.

Thats the point. Up hill with his injury is tough. Who cares if he's a broke dick? He cant play, he's not making the team. We are not out any real money, no wasted cap. It's a good bet to make.

That's the great part though...if he defies the odds and becomes a contributor, we get to drink the tears of all the salty bitch fans throughout the league that think everything is purposely "scripted" in our favor. These are the "good ole days" and we are in them! Enjoy it....and if he doesn't pan out, no biggie. We're into him for peanuts. It's like Thanos said. Stop seeing the world for what it is and start seeing it for what it can be (or something close to that).

I'm just hoping we're not put in a position where this guy actually sees playing time.

I guess I see it differently. Dudes putting in work and putting that surgically repaired foot to the test. Got to be healthy and available to start with, then you let the cards fall how they may in the competition of the offseason. I feel like to keep the championship runs coming, a few of these guys you buy low on have to contribute along the way.

Rick Burkholter deserves a statue if Justyn Ross is sble to contribute to this team in a meaningful way.

Why?

Are we ignoring how good he was as a Fr and So? Do 1,865 yards and 17 TDs on a team with Tee Higgins suck (He outpaced Higgins in yards with 1k as a Fr)? Are we ignoring the fact he impressed Mahomes in mini-camp before he had to have surgery on his foot?

I mean, he's really only had one major injury, the stress fracture in his foot that he tried to play through in 2021 and affected his running in pre-draft. I can't fault him for a congenital defect that needed correction, it isn't his fault and it's not him being a "brokedick." Based on his ability on the field, he probably would have been a day 2 pick at worst. You guys act like he's some player from the University of Guam that has no business being in the league.

All it really comes down to is if they were able to truly fix the stress fracture in his foot. If so, he's going to make this team and he's going to play.

They wouldn’t be having him run those uphill sprints unless the stress fracture was fully healed.
