An NFL player’s body is a multi-million-dollar asset that belongs to him but has been licensed to a team. Since his livelihood depends on it, he should be able to devise his own nutrition and workout regimen. Jerry Rice’s notorious workouts kept him at the top of the game for years. But … since an NFL team has contracted for the exclusive use of that body, their doctors and trainers should be able to sign off on a player’s program. I have a friend who wound up getting an organ transplant because of his bizarre diet. Just because a player thinks his way is healthy doesn’t mean that’s the case.

With Terrell Suggs returning in record time from a torn Achilles, it does seem Troy has been recovering very slowly from a calf injury that didn’t involve a tear.

He was in pittsburgh when the steelers worked out but he used his own training methods. There is no difference if he is in PA or CA. He trains in a completely different way than other football players. I understand his ways of training have allowed him to a physical speciman but they are well documented as not being very good for preparing the body for the physical contact that comes with football.

Actually this year is the only time he trained with the team in a while. Some say his workout regime is the reason for most of his injuries.

So overrated this guy. If he didn’t have that ridiculous hair, he’d have half the notariety. He’s a glorified pass rusher. Gets burned in the pass constantly.

@myroncopesflask

Troy used to train in the offseason on his own in California… but the past few seasons has done it in Pittsburgh… So I’m not sure what you’re talking about.

One thing that has always bothered me is the manner in which the Steelers have always handled Troy. I understand he a very unique and special talent that comes around once every 20 years. That being said they grant him creative license to do as he pleases when it comes to his injuries and training. Sometimes you have to protect a player from himself and the fact that troy plays the way he does (some would say reckless) the team should make sure that he is completely healthy before they let him near a football.

Get yourself a pick 6 on Sunday Troy. It will probably make you feel much better.
