According to Jacobs himself, he nevered suffered a serious injury before his rookie season in the NFL. I really think the guy has just been unlucky so far. Once this cloud passes over his head, I expect big things.

That if from his journal from the 3rd of this month.

Him and Rex grossman are two players that could be good had they not get injured so frequently. More Rex then him but these two could be great. Didn't they used to be the shit in college with eachother?

Besides the highly freakish injury of his spleen last year and the turf toe recently, I don't really remember any other injuries. There might have been more but those r the only I remember forcing him to miss games. Other than that, other guys had proven themselves and remained ahead of him on the depthchart. Plus it's not like each injury has had something to do with the other so it's not as much for us to stress over. I think when he heals up he'll show on the field what teammates, past and present, have raved about the guy for us all to see.

I smell a curse conspiracy theory coming...

Yes, Taylor is injury-prone, so far. No doubt about it. Sure, the injuries were flukey, but that's exactly what makes a player injury-prone: weird, inexplicable injuries that don't seem to stop coming.

I've got my fingers crossed that his luck will change -- apparently he's got sick, sick skills.
