Saint Alex Anzalone

[Left Coast Gator]

Alex Anzalone, former Gator, starting linebacker for the New Orleans Saints, sacked Tom Brady yesterday.

 

[ChiefGator]

Good for him, I hope he has a decent career.

 

[bayou gator]

Great Gator. Hope he stays healthy and has a long NFL career

 

[BMF]

He also rocked our favorite douchebag FSU RB, Dalvin Cook, the week before vs. Minnesota.

If he stays healthy he'll have a solid career.

39 Gators are on NFL rosters this year.

 

[Durty South Swamp]

Hes been looking really good so far. If he stays healthy he could end up being a monster for NOLA.

 

[NavetG8r]

If he stays healthy he'll have a solid career.

Therein lies the $1,000,000 question. Can he? He certainly couldn't at UF. Love the guys heart and athleticism, but he's had a very fragile past.

 

[The Shady Grove Gator]

Great on him. Tom Brady is a mega-douche. Hopefully, he kneed him in the crotch/

 

[FireFoley]

Anyone who could see was aware that Alex was an excellent LB, but could never stay healthy. For the most part he is an excellent tackler. knows his assignments and is not out of position. As a player he was one of the better LB's to play here in the past 8 or 10 years, but not many know it b/c he could never stay healthy. I hope he has a great NFL career and saves his money just in case, but right now I want his #1 job to be this. Since the Saints stink out loud, he should approach Sean Payton about becoming a college coach, perhaps at UF??????

After reading the thread title I thought he got Knighted or something.

Therein lies the $1,000,000 question. Can he? He certainly couldn't at UF. Love the guys heart and athleticism, but he's had a very fragile past.

Report: New Orleans Saints place former Florida LB Alex Anzalone on injured reserve


https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/f...mer-florida-lb-alex-anzalone-injured-reserve/

The New Orleans Saints have had an improved defense so far this year, thanks in part to rookie LB Alex Anzalone.

The former Florida Gator was selected by the Saints in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft and has impressed in limited action, recording 16 tackles and one sack.

However, Anzalone was injured during the Saints’ win over the Miami Dolphins in London on Sunday, and the news isn’t good.

According to Pro Football Talk, Anzalone injured his shoulder and has been placed on injured reserve. He will likely miss the rest of the season.

Considering Anzalone had two surgeries on his shoulders while at Florida, this isn’t good news for the promising rookie.

The Saints host the Detroit Lions this weekend, a game in which Anzalone’s presence would certainly help.

 

[Bernardo de la Paz]

That really sucks.

 

[Captain Sasquatch]

He had glass shoulders here, tough to play LB in the NFL with glass shoulders. Love the kid, but it might be time for something different for him.

[NavetG8r]

Can't say I'm surprised, but I still hate to see it. Apparently he's been doing well, and he always did here too when he was healthy, he just can't stay healthy...

 

[Alumni Guy]

His shoulders may be fragile, but his hair game is strong

 

[URGatorBait]

Clearly Nav jinxed it

 

[Homer J]

And he's injured again.

At least now, he's getting paid to be injured.
