They've been very careful to limit his workload this season and have been open about the fact that he is on a pitch count off neck surgery and with several foot surgeries in his past, but he is making the absolute most out of limited work
He is on pace for 1,253 yards from scrimmage with 16 touchdowns. Leads the colts in receiving tds with 6, and has been an ace in pass protection. 4.8 yards per carry on the ground, so clearly their best back. Im thrilled to see him land on his feet. Great giant, now a big part of a legitimate contender. Hope for his sake he stays healthy. He has been spotted around the colts facility in a walking boot a couple times this year, he will always be playing through something. Still runs just as angry though
This thread is not meant to call out the front office for moving on. Im just happy to see him have this second act
Yep . Best GIants 7th round pick ever!
Some almost seem to be saying that if Bradshaw had stayed with the Giants he would have suffered the same fluke neck injury that he received in Indy that cost him the season. Very logical.
Bradshaw was a two ring back who was a team leader by example as well as a fan favorite. His last season with the Giants was a 1000 yard season with a 4.6 average. The year before does anyone remember the run he made in the playoff game against the Packers that allowed the Hail Mary?
I don't understand why so many here automatically back management in their personnel decisions. This would be a much better team with Bradshaw and Hill on the field. Ravens and Colts have no problems accepting our gifts to them.
Bradshaw was let go because of persistant injuries that the team thought would limit his effectiveness. We also don't have the luxury to use him the way the Colts have.
But his situation is completely different from Hill's.
I thought even Thomas/area junc would easily realize this. Once again, I've been proven wrong.
Any chance that is the case because, you know, he didn't play last year? Can't have it both ways.

Not Really. Didn't barber say he retired because if he didn't TC would run him ino the ground and wreck him, and he didn't want to be a cripple at 50?
Yeah, that's exactly what he said. Dick.
