JiffyJag Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I know Sproles isn't the player he once was, but this is worth discussing if only for the horrible luck you have to have for this to happen. Poor guy. Will this be the end of the line for him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y*so*blu Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 I think he already said '17 was going to be his final season, so this is probably it. Shame to have his career end like this, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugashane Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 This just sucks. He was always exciting and a dynamic jack of all trades. To records to his name display that fact: NFL records Most combined total return yards in a two-game playoff span (2008): 602 Most All-purpose yards in a single season (2011): 2,696 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CKSteeler Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Something should be said to emphasize just how tough this guy was. He was 5'6, 190 pounds. To play as long as he did as well as he did is a testament to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kramxel Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Sad that it had to end this way, but what an heck of a ride!!! One of the most exciting players I ever saw, with the ball in his hands! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakuvious Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 That's a shame. Loved watching him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Small Town Values Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 It's unfortunate he had to finish his career this way. He's such an electrifying player, & a real pleasure to watch. I wish him all the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom cody Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Always liked the guy, if this is it for him then it's a bad way for such a great talent to go out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Think I'm making a little scatback type dude on madden today to honor Sproles legacy. Playing on easy of course cause Lightning Bug always made it look that way. Tiniest Tank Bawse. @Tyty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dome Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Shame his career could end like this, but playing as long as he has at his size is truly remarkable. It's also a shame casual fans probably won't see his career for what it was. He'll probably be largely forgotten by most Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not Sproles, but Terry Metcalf of the 1975 Cardinals. Playing in a 14 game regular season, Metcalf averaged roughly 176 yards per game.
