I think there are more than several good 3 tech DTs in the draft that can fill whatever role they had in mind for Geno. ...which is Maybe 3rd downs only? Id rather give that roster spot to a good young DT to develop.
Good point. I believe he had rotator cuff surgery which could be a substantial challenge for him to come back from. It doesn't really give him that much time to get his power back before camp. I'm sure he'll be working his ass off, so I wouldn't count him out just yet. I think the Bengals are leaving the door open for him to get healthy.
That said, he's 33, so the end is coming soon whether he makes it back this year or not.
