That's a good reason to wait a while to play him, as opposed to starting him right away when he isn't yet comfortable to start, but it went beyond just limiting him at first. Yeah, that could very well be the reasoning, but continuing to field the worst secondary in the league as we push to make the playoffs isn't worth keeping a 4th round pick over a 5th round pick.
