Is he overpaid for a backup RB? Absolutely.
Do we need him keep Burrow alive next season? More than likely.
There are so many other options to protecting Burrow. Improving the line, keeping TEs in to block, using the back as a quick outlet pass... all of these things are solutions. Using Gio as Burrows personal body guard just puts our offense back one player. It’s now 10 vs 11 out there.
Let’s find a different solution to the problem. If cutting Gio gives us money for a FA guard or a TE who we use to block then let’s do it.
We complained for years about being predictable on offense. Keeping Gio and only using him to block is predictable. Shit, I’d we keep him let’s actually use him in more of a diverse fashion. They aren’t gonna do that so let’s get him outta here.
