My response (and I am not on the coaching staff as of this post :snark: ) would be to spell Gio as a third down back that can run, and also be a receiver. Another way is as a slot receiver. This has been Sanu's role, but he has been asked to flex outside so many times due to injury. Now that they have Moore and possibly Alford to rotate with MLJ in the X role, I could see Sanu losing snaps to Burkhead in the slot, and possibly the position altogether. I like Sanu, but he had a lot of drops and has had difficulty getting separation. This appears to be a strong suit of Burkheads, and we shouldn't discount the importance of a slot receiver that could be a safety valve to AD.
Being able to rotate just about every WR spot should keep them legs fresh deep into the game.
