Never was a fan of this pick. Is this the next Kevin White?

Dude is a bum. Love a lot of what Poles has done, but VJJ in the 3rd is looking brutal.

Veteran day off, nothing to worry about

 

[onebud34]

Give that boy some geritol...he'll get back on the field

 

[rawdawg]

Yeah this sucks. I think he's supposed to be a pretty big part of the Bears' gameplan. Could really use his speed in the return game and for some creativity on offense (WR screens, end arounds).

 

[Phibbulous]

Did they amputate his leg yet?

 

[vabearsfan15]

I'm more concerned that this may be a reoccurring issue than I am that he will miss another game. Going from limited to DNP after one practice is alarming. Did he re-aggravate it?
Hopefully it's a one time thing..

Hamstrings can linger for a long time. Disappointing

He cited being injury free as having a younger body compared to younger WRs in the draft too i believe. Aged well

Ooooooof

I wasn't a fan of the pick solely because of his age. Just didn't like using a 3rd rd pick on a 25 year old because of the lack of potential upside. If the Bears wanted a fast, older receiver with hamstring issues they could've just signed Will Fuller.

You young guys don’t understand the older you get first the knees start hurting then the lower back. It’s all downhill after 25

 

[HeHateMe]

He'll be fine

 

[Myk]

Not a hammy, it's bloodclots. It happens to the elderly.

Velus Dvoracek Jr

I don't mind so much the vetaran day off. What I do mind is that he is a veteran of the Civil War.

 

[zabavka]

He had a hamstring injury in college as well. Not sure if it's the same leg or not.

Could've drafted him much later in the draft, I'll keep saying it till he can prove otherwise.

 

[Chicago4Life]

its a hamstring injury which is tricky to deal with...no doubt he'll be back soon

 

[ThatGuyRyan]

A certain chest thumping poster who was trumpeting this as a great pick has been ded silent on this.

Alshon had a hammy injury like 7 years ago - he still isn't back
