NFL players that could have been great? (alien.top)

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.

I would love to peak into the timeline where Wentz didn't get injured. Do we still win it all? Does he win MVP?

Judging from interviews with other players, I don't think he would have done much more. He's locker room cancer to the point that Darren Sproles had to confront him during our Super Bowl season. All of his receivers hated him except Ertz. He wasn't a leader and I don't think he would have ever become a leader.
