Russell "Injury Prone" Okung missed 12 out of 48 Regular Season games for Chargers.

1 in each of his first two seasons with them. Missed weeks 1-7 last year, one more in the middle of his return, and then the last two of the season.

And as long as he is not one of the 2-4% of people who develop long term lung damage, he should have recovered much better than Pardis did with half the commitment. 

Worst case he's shot. Best case he's a good stop gap blindside protector.

An older guy missed 25% of his game at probably the most injury prone position in football, many of them being last year (you also fail to leave out he missed the last 2 games last year because of them being 5-9 and not wanting to hurt him any worse)

What is all of this "IF" he can come back from his health issues??? He played the final 6 games of last season. It's understandable that he'd be rusty during those games as he had come back from a major health scare. He'll have an entire off-season to recondition, and training camp with his old line coach to get re-acclimated. Even if he's just alright, he'll be better than what we had last year.

And you can see I didn't edit.
