I am assuming this latest injury will be recoverable, but I wish him and his agent would holdout to play for a team that can contend.

I don't think AD is like that... the Vikes drafted him and he just signed a big longterm lucrative deal with them, so I think he's stuck with that franchise.

Now... the owner has to be PO'd right now at the coaching staff for putting his big investment at risk like that. I really hope it's not a serious injury, but if it is, expect heads to roll.

AD has stated in tbe past couple of weeks that he wanted no less than 1000 yds this year

If anyone missed it, seven years, up to $100 million, $36 million guaranteed.

It is also top-heavy, meaning that he's expected to get about $40 mil during the first three years of the dealio.

The injury looked very nasty today, I hope he has a full recovery
