What's the common thread between the two? How do you expect a player to learn the physical part of the game on the bench? Do you believe he isn't at a disadvantage due to his major knee injury?

The ACL injury that was over 22 months ago? He did play some last year. If they guy wasn't going to be ready to be anything other than a turnstile TWO YEARS LATER, then he was a freaking horrible first round pick regardless.

Either way, he's not "basically" a rookie. Is he capable of winning a ROY award? No? Then he's not a rookie, basically or not.

The only "phyiscal part" of the game he's learned in over 22 months is that people physically just shove his weak ass TF out of the way and destroy the Bengals' franchise QB over and over. Winston is a noticeable upgrade when he's in, and the guy's average at best. That should tell you all you need to know.
