WJIII has yet to play an NFL snap and is not ready to see extended playing time.
Sorry, but I completely disagree.
This season is all but over. Improving the special teams should be the least of our worries at this point. If im the coach or management, I activate WJ3 to get him playing time and in game reps.
Have we not been down this road before with other recent first round picks? We fail to play them early in their career and when they are finally called upon to start or see playing time, they aren't nearly ready.
Get the kid some reps and get him ready to contribute next year. Im sick and tired of drafting guys in the first round only to have them rot away on the bench for the first two years of their career.
The boys are just talkin' ball, babyyyy
