Every NFL player goes through slumps at various points in their career. What varies is the length and severity of the slump.
In 2017, Julio Jones went six straight games without scoring a touchdown. In 1996, Michael Strahan went seven straight games without recording a sack. In 2009 Adrian Peterson had a seven game stretch of an average 3.5 yards per carry. It’s an odd feeling when one of your franchise players finds themselves performing at a significantly lower level than what they are accustomed to, but we’re all human at the end of the day, and even the best of the best can have off days, weeks, or even months.
