Earlier this season, the coaches were asked why he wasn't receiving playing time. Their answer at the time was that Strachan had only learned one of the WR positions / routes so far and that Reich preferred the WR's know all the routes before playing extensively. There is some benefit to that line of thought - it helps when you know where your teammates are supposed to be on the play. If you start allowing one WR to only learn one route and another WR to only learn another route - it also could get a bit difficult juggling the line-up if you have in-game injuries.
