Don't worry man. A guy can't do much damage when he doesn't play.

I’m trying to understand how he fits with Eagles. Can he play special teams? Can he play slot corner? Has he played any safety?

He sucks in the slot. Like super awful.

Some ST sure.

Def not safety

Just read his profile coming out of LSU. Sounds like he can only be an outside corner. They called out his physicality and his tackling. Still not seeing where he fits for the Eagles unless they think he’s better depth than Josiah Scott. Maybe Bradberry or Slay can move inside to play for Avonte Maddox if he gets hurt again. Maddox seems to miss games every year.

None of the above but he looks good on the IR

He was the Browns 5th best CB and that’s bc they didn’t have 6th that I know of

Saw he had a great combine. Sub 4.4. What is his injury history?

Yes all outside. Even after he had a semi decent 2021 they still went and got another corner in Emerson. So they weren't sold on him.

The Browns bit on him after he went from a top 10 lock to a 2nd rd prospect. Obviously other teams saw something.

Lol

Nerve in shoulder
Hamstring
Want to say ankle.

No matter what it is his recovery time is all time legendary bad.

Well this is great news.

He was out with a pinched nerve for like one year. Toe stubs, twisted ankle, sprained wrist, pulled groin…could be missing one

 

[Shanemansj13]

Well this is great news.

Maybe the Eagles can use him as a decent depth guy. I never got it. He was pretty damn good at LSU and athletic as shit. Injuries but even when he was healthy he just didn’t have it

UCLA not looking like they want to get Detroit Mercy'd tonight.

As much as I hate it...I think they will win the whole thing.

I have been a Kihei hater from day 1.

But cmon man. That ain’t funny.

He isn’t a great player, but he is as competitive as they come.

And in all honesty, I put this loss firmly on Bennett too.

I was just talking to a co-worker this morning about how much I hate his press break.

The only open teammate for him to hit was 50 feet away. Unlikely a 5’6” guard is making that play out of a trap.

He really just needed to call timeout.

That shit was hilarious. Unbelievably stupid. Also he had a player open towards the bench in the direction the trap was coming from. Could have fit the pass around the defender or if you're gonna launch it 100 ft in the air LEEEEEEROY JEEENKINS style, might as well throw it in the direction of the guy that's open. Or don't dribble to the corner to begin with. Or call a timeout. Or throw it off a defender. It was laughably bad.
