It feels to me like he tried to come back too early.
And it is really unfair to raise the durability issue if that is the case, because the play that injured him was one where he was fighting for extra yardage, the OL let the defender right on through, and the defender landed on top of his back. The angle and force would have hurt anyone.
This was the very issue I was apoplectic about in losing Pope, it was pretty clear that Rawls did not look 100% to me.
But now we are stuck/screwed if Michael gets injured because we have literally nothing of value behind him. And nobody to spell a tired Michael either.
Very frustrating because this was entirely preventable. It was clearly foreseeable, the coaching staff just rolled the die on 2 unproven, likely unuseful backs - and got rid of the one guy that could have helped us if they bet wrong. Even worse, there was no upside to the decision, neither Procise or Collins were going to deliver anything this year, they were net non-contributors vs any camp body in the same position.
