It's so crazy how everyone says Barry Sander retired too early in his prime after playing 10 years, and in this era he would be considered ancient if he somehow survived 10 years. Zeke hasn't even play 10 years and people were begging for him to retire 5 years ago.

Barry almost never took direct hits though. His wear and tear was almost certainly much less than even young Zeke.
