I have never been one to question a player’s injury but damn it seems like Kylin takes himself out every 3rd play or so. Did anyone ever see him actually being checked out on the sideline or does the staff just seem to say “oh that’s just Kylin being Kylin” when he comes out of the game?

He’s been doing that since he started playing for a State. I thought he suffered a career ending injury against USM last year, then he’s back on the field a series later.

I really just think he likes attention whether it’s on social media or the field.

Let’s not act like that just started this year... Now to defend Kylin, if you watch CFB that has absolutely run rampant. All these guys can’t wait to tap their helmet and hit the sidelines. I know it was a long time ago but really makes you appreciate guys like Michael Davis & JJ Johnson. Human battering rams you couldn’t drag off the field.

He isn’t just tapping out for a breather.

He’ll come off the field limping or lay on the ground for 2 minutes, then he’ll make miraculous recovery several times within the same game.

When he taps out, the body language and roll eyes of teammates speaks volumes.

I wonder if any coach has ever called him out on it. Sometimes the most talented players get coddled their whole life. Could be that he just doesn’t know any other way to react when getting banged up.

It’s definitely a bad look for a RB hoping to go pro.

Have you ever seen him tap out after a big play or is it the ones where he doesn’t do anything?

He has Nick Weatherspoon syndrome. Loves to pretend to be hurt.

I'm afraid his biggest detriment is between his ears. The good thing is that's an easier fix than something physical, once someone grows a set and shows him he's not in charge.

He touched the ball 22 times yesterday (including 15 catches) and probably ran more routes than anyone on the team. Not sure what else you want from him. This is easily the most overblown thing that our fans have bitched about this season.

On his first touch of the game the UK defender tackled him by the ankles and gator rolled on purpose to twist and injure. It looked like it hurt.

Do his teammates really roll their eyes? I’ve never noticed it but I did notice that Leach didn’t put him back in when he gave the ok signal following the first “injury”. Now I’m wondering if that was coach deciding to sit him as a low level punishment.

I can handle a bit of the nick gotti syndrome but he was perilously close to getting a 15 yard flag after head butting a guy after a play. He’s got to be more in control of himself.
