Hyperbole at its finest.

I believe Fournette missed 3 games, 2 for injury 1 for discipline.

Also remember this about the "top 100" it is just another flawed voting system...
From an older article about the voting process:

And when we pointed that out on Friday, Eagles linebacker Connor Barwin said via Twitter, “[E]veryone knows no players actually vote for who’s on that list right?”
Our buddy Pat McAfee, who punts for the Colts, chimed in that he “[l]ove[s] this tweet.”
So we asked NFL Network to explain the process, and to confirm that players indeed cast ballots for the list

Ideally, all players would do it. This year, the league says only 481 of them actually did. That’s 28.3 percent of all active players.
“All players are given the opportunity to vote through ballots we send to all 32 teams around Thanksgiving,” NFL Network spokesman Alex Riethmiller told PFT via email. “For convenience sake, we try to time it with Pro Bowl balloting, so they can do them together. In addition to ballots collected that way, we also give ballots to many of the players that we interview for our shows. This year, in total, we received 481 votes.”

To vote, each player lists only his top 20 players in the league. The player listed at No. 1 gets 20 points, the player listed at No. 2 gets 19 points, and the process continues until the player listed at No. 20 gets one point.
