Quote:Jaguars.com said it and it was a quote from Gus I believe.  It is just team Kool Aid.

 

I seriously doubt he lost 25 pounds because of a broken leg.  I really have my doubts he lost any weight at all, but I could accept a few pounds maybe.  Are you trying to tell me that he played last season at 280 pounds?  That's basically Marcedes Lewis size, and he definitely wasn't that small.  If he did lose that kind of weight that easily then he truly isn't an NFL prospect and is too small to play in the league.  He's not.
 

Is this the article?

Luke says that he gained about 10-12lbs of "good weight" in the three months since last season ended. He also mentions he was down to 280lbs last offseason due to the broken leg, played at about 300lbs last season, and wants to be at 310-315 for this season. I recall hearing he was playing at about 290lbs last season, but I'll take Luke's word over whatever article I got that from.
