Good scenario and quite possible they go this route. I think a lot will be determined based on Ross's work ethic and availability. If he gets injured again it's probable he is gone. I think there is time this season to earn his respect but he's going to have to work hard for it. If he does, that's just going to make our receiver corp more lethal. But he's got to buckle down and get his focus on not only catching the ball, but also the damn playbook and determination to play when he's banged up a little.
