Kelvin Benjamin Is Already Hurt

I have no been successful in finding it, but I know I read a thread on the Huddle not long after the trade which stated our trainers had concerns about the long term health of Benjamin's knee. The post called it a 'ticking time bomb.' This latest report may indicate there was some validity to those concerns.

I remember that thread as well.

My concerns started in year 2 when he showed up overweight and the coaches called him out on it.  His response?  To pout, and turn his jersey around from front to back while stood on the sideline.  WTF?  At least one coach had to come over and talk with him.

Right then I knew we either had a headcase or someone with maturity problems.  Maturity issues are fairly common in the NFL, and you hope they grow out of that.

Whichever was the case with Kelvin, it seems to me his problems have only gotten worse.  I wished him the best until last week when Cam came up with "no hard feelings bro" and tried to shake his hand, and Kelvin wouldn't shake his hand, like Cam purposely tried to derail his career.

Kelvin is the problem.  Kelvin has issues he hasn't grown out of yet.  I hope his body can last long enough for his brain to realize this.  Because of his emotional state, after football, I don't see a future for this man.

In Kelvin's defense, he's a young man going through a lot.

Rookie expectations after moving on from Smith, suddenly getting a ton of money, being thrust into fame, losing his mother, injury concerns, being traded.

A lot of ups and downs and I can't even begin to imagine what it'd be like to be in his shoes. 

His maturity is definitely a concern. I actually kind of wish he ended up somewhere like KC. Reid just has a way of connecting with players.

Yeah but other than his mom dying he's going the same stuff as every other young player in the league and they somehow generally manage not to eat themselves off the field or piss off their coaches and teammates. He got traded because he is an immature moron, and his injury probably has something to do with that as well.
