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.

Kyle Pitts.

4th overall TE who runs a 4.4 at 6ft.6 247 lbs with a insane wingspan. Pro Bowler with over 1000 yards as a rookie, already has some circus catches of bad balls, then suffered through Mariota (who got him hobbled with a hospital ball), Ridder and now Heineke.

He is one year removed from his MCL injury and is still a bit ginger, I want the Falcons to find him a coach and QB who can get him the ball in 2024 or trade him to a team that will use him.

Bijan is fast becoming Kyle Pitts the 2nd on this team.

Arrest Arthue Smith.

He can still be great, maybe a change of scenery is needed. It helped for Evan Engram when he went to the Jags, he’s having a bit of a resurgence
