If he's only going to miss a couple days anyway, I am also a bit surprised that he's allowing his chief competition to take his snaps to try to steal his starting spot after he himself put up bad film.
I’m not there, but I can’t imagine a player who’s supposed to be a starter week 1 letting someone else take your reps over a little soreness in an elbow. You start to wonder about a guy with all that talent but doesn’t have the drive to really want it.
