Bortles Played with Wrist Tendonitis and Two Shoulder Separations


Quote:So 1 of 2 things happened that kept Broke Bortles playing all season while injured. Either the coaching staff was not privy to his injuries, and he didn't disclose them, or they knew about his injuries but kept him playing, despite the pitiful performance. Either way, the coaches are idiots.


How could they not know the extent of his injuries? Was he only injured on game days? They had to see it during practice. If they couldn't tell something was wrong during practice, it either wasn't as serious as Blake let on after the season, or those closest to him were too busy on their cell phones to notice.


But I feel they had to know, even if Blake didn't say anything. His weekly performance was telling. And this team had no solution for a QB who apparently was suffering every Sunday. Why did we even have the backup QB's activated each week? There is one to "push" Bortles for the starting QB role. This might be Blake's biggest "deterioration" issue.
 

If Bortles was so injured and the coaches are such idiots why did Bortles look much better in week 16 and week 17? Perhaps the new staff will need to find a way to keep him injured.

The sun's not yellow, it's chicken.
