Dude's turning into another Jake Long for us. :facepalm
Sorry, I'm no doctor, but how do you go from walking with a cane, to playing in the NFL within 3 months. Not possible...if Gase didn't love him so much, he'd be gone....
He should retire honestly.
Everyone seems to be panicking about Pouncey. He is the O-line leader and one of the most important players on the team. Before over-reacting and jumping off the cliff, let's see what condition Big Mike's in at Training Camp. Every senior person in the entire organization knows how important Pouncey is to the team, especially Coach Gase. Tannenbaum drafted Mangold and presumably knows him very well. If Mike doesn't feel the need to spend big $ on Mangold or draft a highly touted Center, then he's probably pretty comfortable with Pouncey and the backup players we've got.

Everything I said about him is playing out 100 percent like it was laid out.
Where are all those people who mocked me and whistled past the graveyard, claiming that "Pouncey would be fine, because front office knows way more than you, etc." and, "You don't even have the right Pouncey brother."
Right.
Enjoy another year of fantastically underwhelming play by a player who can't condition or build his base or core, and can't practice full out, and will stumble out for game time and magically get pushed around -- even worse than the last time he missed most the offseason.
Unicorn Pouncey of five years ago is a myth.
The Pouncey taking up a roster spot with a fat salary and big rep -- the now Pouncey -- cannot be counted on without being a liability. The center of Miami's line is the weakest link. Right where championship teams are strongest.
