His weight ballooned during the off season and received an incredible amount of backlash from the coaching staff as well as the fans. If I were the GM of a professional team and shelled out a decent amount of coin for a 1st round draft pick, he had better be in tip top shape. The weight clause is warranted on a case by case scenario. I recall a similar situation with William “The Refridgerator” Perry.
