    One of the things that keeps coming up about Goff around the net is that he needs to put on bulk. I think so too, but the truth is, he has already come a long way from his senior year.

    It has to do with that enzyme deficiency he had.

    Which, apparently, he has long since overcome.

    Is it true that you had a digestive deficiency that prevents you from being able to process protein properly?

    JG: I’ve been trying to put on weight my whole life. I didn’t figure it out until a year ago that that was the reason why I couldn’t. The protein wasn’t being digested or broken down correctly into my muscles. So I had to take some powders. I don’t know exactly the chemicals. It was legal. It allowed me to break down the protein better. I really don’t have to take it anymore.

    “We had to adjust his diet and implement probiotics and get him on amino acid supplements,” Flaherty said. “He’s eating lots of lean chicken, turkey and fish. Working on his diet was the big unlock for him.

    honestly that doesn’t worry me. his weight. he was 21 for half the season. turned 22 in october. and like you said they found out he had an enzyme deficiency.

    in a couple years he’ll have more than enough bulk. like i said he came into the league at 21. his body has a lot of maturing left to do. he just has to work at it.
