I disagree. His injury was a torn bicep. The Bengals could have used that experience to see how he could handle the outside role against NFL talent. He had been able to attend coaching meetings, game plans, etc. but he had no opportunities.
Now, they could head in to next year having to ask him to start. Is he JJoe or is he Dennard? We won't know until the season begins.
