Did they really miss him?
Can we build on what we saw this last month.
If Reader is back it’s on a prove it deal. Teams are going to be hesitant to sign him and he is going to be unsigned for awhile. I don’t think it’s a forgone conclusion he’s gone.
I wouldn’t be surprised if he left either. I feel better about letting him walk now given the injury (unfortunately).
Not sure about the last few weeks, but I do know, that in 2022, ''Playoff P'' went on a run of high PFF numbers after a drought of good performances. The difference and jump in his effectiveness was timed with the week that DJ Reader came back from injury. When DJ Reader was back on the team, Pratt and Wilson were all over the place at the right time.
That's what makes the drop off from both LBs this season so baffling. I don't care what final numbers say, Wilson was a step or two behind A LOT of plays this last season and Pratt looked like he was trying to be ''Mr Forced Fumble'' more than he was trying to play LB. Maybe it was DJ that dropped off and we didn't quite notice because it was subtle and the LBs were the one that paid the price.
