    Tony Conigaliaro unless death is an option, then its Kenny Hubbs.

    I'm sure there are others I am forgetting.
    tmac and penny had low pain thresholds. they were not injured everytime they missed games or played poorly. grant hill is a candidate for injury affected careers.

    Tony Conigliario and Reggie Lewis come to mind. Terrell Davis was also one of the first guys I thought of. Definitely Bill Walton. If his feet hadn't failed him who knows. Another guy with foot problems was Kevin McHale, even though he played parts of 13 seasons the back half of his career was definitely impacted after he broke his foot and played on it through 87 so who knows

    Bill Walton should be mentioned also. He was always hurt.

    I'd say Barry Sanders but he really didn't leave the game because of injuries.

    still remember watching bo take bp at fenway park when i was about 8 or 9 years old....amazing

    someone mentioned terrell davis...met him at old foxboro stadium before a game...nice guy...signed a program for me....i dont know if we could really put him in the running though.....heck of a back....he took it further than anyone else....but weve seen some other guys take have success in that shannahan/alex gibbs zone blocking scheme...mike anderson, olandis gary, portis, arian foster....davis did take it to another level in 98...just not really sure hed have been that good anywhere else

    heard that Jamie Moyer woke up with a stiff neck after his last start in AAA

    it would be a shame if a bad night's sleep interfered with his career at such a tender age

    Bo Jackson is a stupid answer, the question is not super specific but Bo Jackson was a 28 year old backup running back what exactly would he of done if not hurt?

    Ernie Davis is a legit as hell answer. Obviously never saw him, but looking back - nothing but respect for that guy. Tragedy indeed.
