NFL players that could have been great? (alien.top)

What player in the NFL, past or present, would you have wanted to see succeed so badly but due to injuries, off the field issues, or whatever happened just derailed their career? For me it was unfortunate to see players like Josh Gordon or Justin Blackmon have their careers end or never getting back on track because of off-field issues.

There’s something buttersweet about the guys who hung it up early for their health, Kuechly and Luck come to mind, lots of respect for them but damn I wish I could have seen a few more seasons from each of them

49ers had a stretch of linebackers calling it early. Willis at 30 I think. Chris Borland after one season.

Knew I was missing another. Borland sticks in the memory as a badger fan.
