The injury just reinforces the situation against him.

Depth is not great at OL, Dan Skipper is in there offering some experience. Seems they want to develop the draft picks over bringing in a vet to supplant them. I would not be surprised if they added some guys during cut down days.

But the secondary is much more devoid of experience. That will be a sore point all year as we play all those young guys. Lots of potential in that group but it will be rough going for awhile.
Like you, I am not down on the guy. I like what he brings to the field. he is one of the few difference makers at the position. That said, he needs to realize the market for his position is not good at all. I think he comes to that realization in a week or three and tries to make the relationship work.
