Losing Denzel Perryman could be more than just another ‘next man up’ situation

Nobody wants to see players become injured in the NFL, but it is a part of the game. A quick slant could lead to a ruptured Achilles while improper tackling techniques could end up costing a player their season with a torn Anterior cruciate ligament. Most people know that injury better as a torn ACL.

The fact is, though, injuries are apart of football. It’s next man up and next opportunity for a young player to make their mark as a potential superstar. That doesn’t always happen, however. More often than not, it shows general managers and scouts what little depth they might have a position outside their starter.
