My point though, is not that practice is not important, it is that the other guys need the reps more, and Taylor is not wanting to expose AJ to risk prior to the season and lose him again on some freak incident.
You are correct, AJ is going to be in the right spot and will know the playbook. I think the difference is hitting him in stride vs a catch and tackle. Hitting AJ in stride is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen when Andy was able to do it *tears up*
Agreed though, I’d rather get a few games out of him then lose him in a meaningless scrimmage.
