    It can’t be a player who got injured once or twice. It must be a player who was constantly injured, season after season.

    So far off the top of my head I have

    OC Wells
    LOT Safflod

    OLB Tinoisamoa
    FS Atogwe

    Okay that’s a start.

    Amendola

    The upside to being a Rams fan is heartbreak.

    Sprinkles are for winners.

    Well, Bradford missed games in 3 of the 4 seasons he was with the Rams, including all of his 4th season – although I’m not sure he’s injury prone as much as unlucky.

    The problem is these guys don’t last in the league very long so it’s hard to come up with many names of an injury prone players. There’s quasi-darwinian selection pressures working against them so they don’t stick around long enough to be remembered.

    One way to do this, then, is to think of it as an “all tease” list—guys who stick around and tease but keep succumbing to injuries.

    And IMO Bradford qualities. With Bulger as his #2.

    Jim Youngblood (only had 2 complete seasons from 1976-1983).

    And as long as I am there, Carl Ekern.

    Maybe I will replace Wells with Rich Saul. Saul’s nickname, after all, was “Hospital.”

    Ernie Conwell? Seems to me he was oft-injured.

    Cromwell and Avery are in.

    So we know that along with Manumaleuna, they run a 2 TE offense.
