A career high in sacks and the second most tackles he has had in a season during his NFL Career.
Is Grier working today ? Shoot, our Phins are leaving in droves. WAKE UP MAN ! I understand Wilkins out for $110M, but why did it get to that ? Should have signed him last year. AVG ? No excuse. Hunt ? Also, should have been signed long ago. My friends and fans, we IZ in trouble. Ring the alarm on Grier someone pleezzz.
3 of our OL gone as well, with Ol’ one-leg Armstead left?!? Not sure if we should be giving Tua big money yet… need to see if he can live through the year.
