Griff28 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 The guy has a history with McBeane. Played well in the pre-season. Was on the practice squad for the first four games. Was elevated to the active roster, STARTED and played well in a game five win. Was then cut to make room for a third quarterback and replaced on the practice squad by a TE (Towbridge) who has no real chance of being an active roster guy any time soon. Granted not a huge deal with a back up safety but it all seems very odd... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff28 Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 So the logical move is that he comes back to the practice squad. Instead replaced by a guy they cut 6 weeks ago? Makes no sense. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the system makes it relatively easy to step in as a DB and play well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won’t be surprised for a second if he’s back in some capacity soon. This is life on the fringe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I feel like he will make it back to the practice squad eventually. I feel like he played well. Perhaps he didn't play as well as we think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob in STL Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 I think he will be back on PS if he is eligible. Need to get Anderson up to speed as the #2 which might take a few weeks. Then we can cut Peterman and bring a more useful player on the 53. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff28 Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 I get the Anderson up to speed thing and perhaps Marlowe didn't play as well as I/we believe he did (Good point MrEpsYtown) but it still seems odd to bring Towbridge back, instead of Marlowe, at this point when Towbridge wasn't even part of the original PS group after the final cuts were made. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marlowe has to clear wavers first. I still believe Nate will be gone soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Because now we have to keep 3 QBs on the roster because our backup can't play or mentor Allen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewEra Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 We should back in this thread in 5 years. I too, thought he played well vs the titans. But he’ll most likely be a one year Ko Simpson minus the big mouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBean Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Kerley and Marlowe are gone because have to protect a huge asset in Nate Peterman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly...It makes no sense at all...He played well, all preseason, gets the start, then McBean gets rid of him.....these dudes don't have a clue.....10 Draft picks next season...the 1st 3 rounds will be Defense of players....TIME TO HIT THE RESET BUTTON AGAIN.

He is a special teams ace and when he stops running routes early it's because he's saving himself for the ensuing punt coverage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he didn't play as well as we think. Is Marlowe really worse than Rafael Bush? But maybe I'm just noticing the big drop-off from Micah Hyde. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
