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.
The entire landscape of the NFL is potentially different if Cook doesn’t stay down given the West Coast Offense was created by Bill Walsh to cover up Greg’s replacement (Virgil Carter)'s deficiencies
