Dunlap went through a similar deal his rookie season. Only got in the rotation due to injuries and Marv wouldn't start him for whatever reason. He was in Marv's doghouse ala John Ross. Dunlap posted 9.5 sacks in 12 games, but the "starts" always went to Geathers. Atkins led the NFL in sacks in that preseason, but he wasn't given a starting gig until the following year.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
