That is basically what McD implied last week in a press conference when he said Allen would see some preseason action but not the first game. Assuming none of the starters play the 3rd game, the Steelers game is the only one left.
I thought if he came out looking good, Darnold might end up being a cut/trade candidate we could look to upgrade over K. Allen.
On another note, that was a terrible throw by Lance that by pure luck ending up being a touchdown instead of a pick.
I didn’t bother looking up contract situations before making that comment to see how realistic cut situations really are. Seems like Houston is not setup to turn things around anytime soon unless Stroud really starts to click soon.
Keenum is looking pretty good, would like to have him back. Wouldn’t be too surprised to see Houston dropping either him or Mills with Stroud there now. Either one would be an upgrade for us at QB2.
Von also said the injury was no big deal when it first happened and didn’t think he would miss much time. I wouldn’t put too much stock into what he says on a recovery timeline. It’s just good that he has always been optimistic about it and seems to be working hard through his rehab.
Maybe we can pick up Josh Rosen. Keep Kyle Allen and genetically fuse them together (sort of like Jeff Goldblum in the fly) and end up with backup Josh Allen, super human QB2.
Yeah there is at least two now. Had the hall of fame game on last night (strictly as background noise) and saw this one come one. His hair is terrible though.
