What player in the NFL, past or present, would you have wanted to see succeed so badly but due to injuries, off the field issues, or whatever happened just derailed their career? For me it was unfortunate to see players like Josh Gordon or Justin Blackmon have their careers end or never getting back on track because of off-field issues.

Aldon Smith. But he let off field troubles ruin his career.

He was actually pretty solid for us in that 2020 season after he had been out of the league 5 years. I’m surprised he didn’t make a roster after that.

Yea he did pretty well. But off field issues again. He just could not stay away. He was amazing first there years with SF and could have been the best. He had 42 total sacks for three years in the league.
