Same here, but Bradley just didn't seem to want Rodgers to start last season.

For that reason, I believe that whichever rookie CB looked the best would have gotten the starting nod over Rodgers.

I hope they pick Rodgers back up once he's reinstated. He probably would've been the starter had this not happened. Even if the Colts get nothing else out of him, he's been well worth the 6th round pick used on him.

They still had Gilmore. I figured Rodgers would fill his spot this season. What do I know?

2. This is league sanctions. You want two guys on the roster who cant contribute?
3. This makes the colts look bad. Irsay has a big heart, but this hurts the bottom line. Thats why they fired the last head coach. Didnt win in a league where winning is the only thing

Unless something has changed over the past year Rodgers could have been put on Reserve/Suspended status and not counted towards the roster (or the cap I think).

Reserve/Suspended: Any player who is currently suspended from the NFL. Such a player does not count toward roster limits and is not paid his base salary while on this list. Atlanta Falcons WR Calvin Ridley is a current example of someone on this list.

Guessing this is more about image than anything else. Like others on here I'd like to see him back if he can get it together.

Commish's take is probably based on Facyson playing more than Rodgers even though it was obvious that Rodgers is better, so Bradley probably didn't like Rodgers b/c of his size, etc.

I had honestly forgotten about Facyson. Thanks a lot.

He might get one. When he is eligible to play again.
