Peerman gets activated not WJ3

If he forces Brown off the roster then he sits on the bench and does nothing just like Brown was doing.

Meanwhile we only have 2 RBs on our roster.

If Gio was not injured then I have no problem bringing back Jackson.  But with Gio down it is the only move to make.

Chykie has been active for some games. There is more than enough opportunity to get WJ3s feet wet.

I wonder if a super talented 4.3 speed DB could run down and cover a kick?

I wonder if a guy on our practice squad that knows our offense could play RB at the level Peerman has? 7 years and he almost has 500 career yards from scrimmage. Those type of numbers are damn near impposible to replace so i will give you that. But i disagree it was the only move to make.

With the new rules in place contact in training camp and during in season practices makes it hard to replicate in game experience. And i have seen coaches complain it has slowed their ability to develop players. We just had a prime opportunity to get our first round pick true game experience. Something he will now not experience until next year when he finally gets his first action. All because a career special teamer at the twilight of his career can save our run game?
