Thoughts on Tate and the TE's

Tate is useless. Anyone can fair catch kickoffs or make it to the 22 yard line. And Pacman & Gio should be the punt returners anyways, and Mario as well if he is actually shows promise in preseason. I just see Tate taking up a valuable roster spot at this time of year when there is no practical need for him anymore.

22 yard line isn't how far he made it. He'd come out from 8 yards deep in the end zone and make it to the 16. A -4 net from just taking a knee.

And, with Jones, Green and Eifert out, he made little difference in the passing game.
