He's had 3 seasons since to get better and just hasn't.

Was it the hip, COVID, or both?
For Kelce, it was injury that caused him to miss his rookie season. Also, Kelce is an outlier. Missing the rookie season and not playing an actual game for a year doesn't sound like a great way to adapt to the NFL.
I'm over Niang. He was a 3rd round pick that hasn't improved. That's not unusual in the NFL. Just got off on the wrong foot.
