That's wonderful for him. But that's the nature of the beast. Good teams don't have the room on their roster for Undrafted Pre-Season wonders in garbage time that bad teams like Carolina do. 

 

We only ever carry 3 true RB's. Were we supposed to cut Devin Singletary for him? No. Were we going to cut James Cook months after spending a 2nd Round pick on him? No. Were we supposed to cut Zack Moss, who performed just as well, if not better in Pre-Season against better players, and had trade value for a guy like Nyheim Hines? No.

 

With the state of the team and roster as of late, gone are the days of Undrafted Rookies making the roster. And that's a good thing. Get used to these players making other rosters and possibly performing well.

Anyone who thought Zack Moss should be on this roster coming into the season should stop drinking the kool-aid.

Is Moss even playing?

No carries or receptions today.

Blackshear wouldn’t be able to do ***** behind this line. There’s a reason he didn’t make the final roster.

[Royale with Cheese]

4 carries and 32 yards?  That’s a great game?

Don't go ruining the narrative with stats.

Running backs are a dime a dozen. I don't even remember who the Jets had today. Good for Blackshear but I am not losing sleep over not having him.

He had a pedigree coming out of college that had him selected in the 3rd Round. That made him have some trade value that turned into Nyheim Hines. He also performed just as well as Blackshear against better players in the Pre-Season.

Love me some Baa Baa Blackshear....

He's also Devin Singletary, just not as good.  

[RiotAct]

Don’t recall him.

[Simon Says]

Panthers ran 46 times and Blackshear had 4 carries. Big deal.

Yeah!  Well Zay Jones is looking pretty good in Jacksonville...🙄

One downside of being a real contender is that some of the guys you like but can't fit on the roster are better that what other teams have on their 53. Sucks to lose them, especially when you have an injury and would have brought them up. But it's a good problem to have.

A catch for 17 yards and a TD.  49 combined yards and a TD.  Blackshear had better stats that all our RBs combined.  And on only 5 touches

His runs looked pretty nice - good cuts and then exploded through the hole

And? That doesn't discount the fact that he had more of a reason to make the roster than Blackshear did and had trade value where Blackshear didn't.

Okay?  That means it was a great game?

I don't remember Blackshear but I do remember Breece Hall 

 

How is Breece Hall doing ?

I read that he was nothing more than a preseason hero.

Imagine if Hines had that same production.

 

motor-cook-Hines 13-46 3 catches 17 yards.

 

Blackshear didn’t have one 50 yard run to pad his stats.  He had mostly 10+ yard plays in his spot duty.  And he had a TD.  Lately we know how hard those can be to come by
