Doug Hogue is 20 years old and apparently had a growth spurt *cough* HGH *cough* excuse me:

Can we just cut Fox now. Seriously the guy gets hurt just walking into the damn building.

Fox's last chance is training camp. With Reiff and Hilliard, Lions should have no problem cutting him on last cut day if he can't stay healthy in camp. Keeping 5 tackles is tough on other areas of the final 53.

Fox is a bum...

 

[imthetruth]

Agreed. Just can't stay healthy.

While admittedly fishy due to being so uncommon, it is possible to have a growth spurt later in life. As I recall David Robinson entered the Naval Academy a full 6 inches shorter than when he left. There's almost a zero chance he was on HGH or anything similar.

There are natural / biological factors that can cause growth spurts later on, though they often are a sign of an underlying problem. Hopefully that isn't the case here.

I was 5 foot 0 in 9th, by the time I graduated HS I was about 6 feet and I didn't stop until I was 6'5" at age 23 so it happens.

Damn Mitch....that's a lot of growing.

Yes. I went through clothes like crazy in HS. I felt bad for my Mom.

 

[Diggler Cometh]

Yep, time to flush that turd down the toilet.

Schwartz really is making it clear. If he can't stay healthy, he's gone.
