Excellent get! I feel much better now. Any idea how long before he’s fully healthy?

I think he said when he got cut that he'd just gotten healthy, but he was looking for work at that point.

I think he'll be the starter after our bye week.



I certainly hope it is much sooner then that

Hopefully he is all that and a bag of chips.

How is he not on a 53?  


Missed much of camp with injury. Probably getting back into football shape. Plus he will need some time with the playbook and making the calls

Happy with it. Would have expected on the 53. But interesting he was open to the PS initially. 

They may have committed something to him wink/nod and this allows them to get him in the team learning/practicing.   Keep in mind a guy signed to the 53 after week 1 is not guaranteed salary so they may want to do that.

  Well they are posting his priority is winning so this wins on a number of points.  He'll have time to learn the defense, they can even rotate the lbs if they all perform well in schemes they run.  Read he's good friends with Hyde and Poyer was it?  If so, easy to think they discuss various schemes they play in in offseason and might have him up to speed in no time.   And easy enough to move players to from ps, though not sure of all the tweaks they may have in place for practice squads.  However since to be signed off another PS the player has to agree and a vet knows the grass is not always greener when you chase the $$.

Was looking through transactions around the league from the past week and missed Isaiah Simmons getting traded from AZ to NYG for a 7th round pick… Shame we didn’t enquire or put an offer for him. Kirksey is serviceable but this really makes the LB situation outside Milano more concerning.

He turns 31 tomorrow and is not a particularly good player. He’s serviceable though. Heck, as of today that might make him the best MLB on the roster. And he’s always seemed to be a good dude - the kind of person you want to root for.
