NFL players--careers derailed by injury.

[YankeeRebel]

Stingley being on the honorable mention list works for me.

Probably true. The injuries came fast and often.

 

[Thruthefog]

Sam Bradford.

mmmph

 

[jarntt]

Ezekiel Elliott

How's Wentz's knee?

 

[GNG]

Nick Collins.

 

[Kevin12773]

my 1st thought was Billy Simms

And as the other poster brought up Sean Taylor as well

 

[megalodon30]

Darrent Williams could've been what Chris Harris has become. Though that was death, not injury. RIP.

 

[Superbelt]

Non-football injury but: Gabriel Rivera.

Jamal Anderson

I watched PFT Live with Chris Simms and Mike Florio. Here's their picks.

CHRIS:
(1)Bo Jackson
(2)Terrell Davis
(3)Sterling Sharpe

MIKE:
(1)Gale Sayers
(2)Tony Boselli
(3)Billy Sims

Guys I looked up in addition--Dennis Byrd, Robert Edwards, Ickey Woods, LeCharles Bentley, Alan Ameche, Keith Millard, Carnell Williams, Steve Emtman, Greg Cook, Ki-Jana Carter, Darryl Stingley, amongst others of course.

Would definitely add Sean Taylor

There have been tons of players whose career was cut short due to injuries......my favourite was probably Eric Wright. Arguably the best cornerback in the NFL at his peak when a bad injury set him back for good.

 

[SteelersPride]

yancey thigpen was injured right

Mark Malone was never the same after the knee injury. He still may have sucked as a QB but we'll never know what could've been if he hadn't shredded his knee.
