Why Sean Lee missing time now is not the worst thing in the world

Cowboys veteran linebacker Sean Lee is dealing with an injury and is unavailable to practice. Man, if we had a nickel for every time we’ve heard that one, we’d have enough money to cover the cost of Lee’s one-year, $4.5 deal for the 2020 season. Okay, so that may be an exaggeration, but you get the gist of it. Lee gets hurt a lot. In fact, here is his injury history over his 10-year NFL career.

That’s a grand total of 40 games over the course of his ten seasons in the league (160 possible games), which means Lee has been out of action for 25% of his entire career.
