No NFL coach plays rookies unless he has to.

I guess this shows me.  That is why Kareem Hunt played his first game as a rookie, and he even fumbled on his first carry.  A turnover, against the defending Super Bowl Champs, in week 1.

Did Reid bench him?  No, he gave him more chances and Hunt went on to set the NFL record for total yards by a rookie in their first game (246 yards!) and that was a third round pick?

But I guess Reid had to play him, especially after the fumble.
