Three Time Pro Bowl running back Preist Holmes has officially stated he wants to attend training camp. The only problem is due to his prior injuries KC's coach is not sure if he will be their dynamic starter like he was in the 2005 season. Lets take a look back at his previous achievements shall we?In the 2001 season he led the NFL in rushes with 1555 yards, and in 2002 rushed 1615 yards and 21 touch downs with an injured hip. In 2003 he broke Marshall Faulk's record for total touchdowns in a season. That's three consecutive seasons with breakout performances, with injuries.
The Problem: In 2005 his season ended with a massive spinal cord injury, which he has been healing ever since.
So here's the question: If he has proven time and time that he can perform at such standards with injuries, what makes this season any different?
If Priest has taken all the right precautions to help heal correctly, why not let him by that dynamic starter Kansas City needs?
Just a thought.
