I hope you're right but he never really accomplished that much in the NFL even though he put in many years and made out pretty well financially. He did well in Denver which i think my Grandma could reach the 1000 yard mark with that year. The guy was great in college but wasn't really that great in the NFL. I think his NFL career is over unless he finds a job as a Fullback somewhere.

Of which he was the first to do so since a pretty well known pair of backs did quite a few moons ago.

Also, if someone thinks he was a bust in the NFL, PLEASE back it up with more than "my grandma could have ran for 1000 yards that year". I GUARANTEE you that if you talk to anyone on those Bronco teams they will tell you that Reuben was the best FB they played with. The guy was a beast that made a position switch to FB after 2 years with the Lions, then on a dime had to go back to TB. The conditioning is totally different, and his body mass had been changed to fit the FB position. Once you hit your 30's, making body and muscle changes are not easy.

Please, before you call someone a bust look more into it than rushing yards, because anyone that stays in the league for 10 years has contributions for a team, and is being payed for just that. Teams don't keep people around for the "fun" of it.
