Denver Broncos right tackle Ja'Wuan James suffered an Achilles tear on Tuesday, a devastating blow for an athlete in his prime.
Making matters considerably worse, James might be out $10 million because of the injury. He suffered the tear while working out away from team facilities, a detail that allows the Broncos to void his otherwise fully guaranteed contract.

James ... you played the game wrong. If you get injured in the offseason, you need to hide it until about 2 mins into team sanctioned workouts .. then lay down and point to knee.
Cooley years ago said this happens every year. Guy injured during offseason, hides it, waits for 1st day of practice and goes down early.
That's why we always see a handful of "injuries" on day 1.

Pretty hard to hide an Achilles tear. He'd struggle to walk let alone hide it until camp starts. To fix it for his own health, let alone his playing career, he'd have to get surgery ASAP. No way he'd be able to hide that.
