LongTimeListener said:An injury-prone player is a player who has a lot of injuries. Both players have missed significant time in each of their pro seasons because of injuries. That's about as straightforward as it gets.
Your post is a wicked pissah, though.

Let's see if the other shoe drops now.
It's clear from this post you just hate the Patriots and would rather spout off at the mouth using lazy hyperbole.
Hernandez wasn't and isn't injury prone. He tested positive for weed, which dropped his draft stock. He sat the last two games of the regular season in 2011 to make sure he was 100 percent for the playoffs and nearly had his ankle snapped in half last year.
Gronk missed his junior season with a back injury, which scared teams off. He came in and by his second season was the best TE in football. He nearly had his ankle snapped in half in the AFC championship game and managed to play two weeks later. He broke his forearm last year, came back early and somehow managed to land on it on his first play back and break it again.
I wouldn't call either injury prone. That title is reserved for people who suffer from injuries from not taking care of themselves - muscles pulls and the such - or stupidly putting themselves at risk, a la Vick, Big Ben, RGIII deciding to not protect themselves from getting killed.
But label them injury prone. Fine. By your definition, anyone who's missed a game is injury prone, so that's great.

He allegedly shot a guy in the face, but wasn't arrested or charged for it?
