IlliniGuy76 1,124 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Lovely! He MAY play and of course... it’s a Monday night game. Not starting him - I can’t chance him not playing. Good luck to you all rolling the dice! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fourstar 264 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) [...] I’m not convinced this Tenn/Buff game is happening so those guys are out too. Gonna have to sit him at this point. Annoying haha Edited October 11, 2020 by tonycpsu Removed Cool Story Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FitzMagic 4,260 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I think he will sit. I think Sean Payton is just playing mind games. I doubt they ever intended to let him play until after the bye week. It just makes very little sense to bring him back now with the bye week giving him an additional two weeks recovery. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JacobThunder15 321 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 If you want to take the risk and Trequan smith is on the waiver wire pick him up so you have a play either way, but I would pivot none the less Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, this is exactly what I'm thinking too. I'm not starting him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm with you on logic, but the coaches don't always use it. Lots of smoke screens and mind games, so who knows. If I were coaching, he would be sitting through the bye to make 100% sure he is healthy. For reference, I'm benching him for D Johnson this week and I'm not feeling good about it at all with Slay probably covering him, even though he'll have a high volume of throws coming his way (most likely).

yossarian 3,519 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Man. F this guy and F that Saints organization. They knew all this earlier in the week and they just wanted to be clever. I hope they all fall in to the sea. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now that it isn't due to injury? is he gonna go from "OUT" to "a**hole"? does your league have a spot for that? What kind of practice altercation do you need to get into to be benched for a game? Did he stab a guy? Edited October 11, 2020 by yossarian 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dayvidhong 109 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 saints are too prideful. they need to put their egos aside and realize they need him out there. on a positive note, after the bye week he'll be guaranteed 100% healthy so there's that at least.

AlexxelA 129 Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 punching a teammate + injury + his "beef" w/ Brees about the flag/kneeling is making me send out a couple offers to trade him away Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So the only thing that's causing you to ship him out as he's getting healthy is...he punched a teammate in practice? That's not good, but unless he's got a history of this kind of thing, so what? It's annoying but there's no reason to think this will be an issue going forward. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
