This is fourth year in the NFL.  He’s yet to play a full season, he’s had an ankle injury in the past, he missed a part of camp this year with a hamstring injury, he had a torn ACL coming into the NFL.  The Achilles was the most serious injury but not the only one.  I am not saying they will let him walk but they will consider his injury history before making a decision on him they would be fools not too.  

He's only missed a couple of games other than that so again he hasn't missed that many games....he was having his best season before he got hurt and the safety is depth is not deep....like I said I doubt they let him walk

That’s only because he got lucky and injured himself towards the end of the season. Injuries are injuries. Especially ones that big.

Nick Cross is good. Next man up, get em Nick!

Opportunity for Cross. Huge opportunity. He made one of the best plays of the season with his Moss-like interception over Pickens head. He blocked a punt for a td against the titans. Keep playing for that spot #20. Dude is 22 years old.

Bradley doesn’t seem to like Cross so I hope cross plays really well. With Blackmon being a FA I think it’s good we get to see what cross has. I think we need an answer on him before FA and the draft. 

 

An article this week in the Athletic quoted Bradley saying he likes the growth that Cross has made this year. Last year, he didn't like Cross, this year he thinks he is doing the right things. The article was about Cross learning how to be a professional.

 

"After starting the first two games of the year, Colts defensive coordinator Gus Bradley felt Cross was in over his head, so he was yanked from the lineup and reduced to being a special teamer."

 

...and then,

 

"Bradley commended Cross for his focus while juggling many different roles this year as the team’s backup at strong safety, free safety and nickel. He trusts Cross, which Bradley admitted wasn’t always the case last year, and expects him to take full advantage of his increased role."

Harrison played well, its impressive to send months packing on lbs to play linebacker and come in with 2 picks in first couple games (1 for td), then moving back to Safety with the added weight in a must win game and playing like that. Always liked his play now convinced he needs a big role moving forward.

If he had those injuries at beginning or end of season he would have missed a ton of games. Because it was at the end he had all off season to rehab.
