Draconator Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 From the video of the snowball fight, he's a huge part of this team, albeit on the practice squad. We all remember what he has done in the pre-season. Maybe put him in, in one of the final two games and see what he can do? I'd personally love to see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 It's a nice thought, but if they're going to play backups the next two games, they should be playing the guys who will be called on if the starter goes down to get the experience they need to step right in. In this case, it should be TJ Yeldon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rochesterfan Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 We need a banging our head against a wall emoji. He is not eligible to play this year - he was designated the international spot as an extra PS player. He is not eligible for call up or to play until next year - so no we will not see him. 8 1 2 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 He is not eligible. For the 20th time it seems like throughout the last 2 years of him being on that special PS designation. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I think we need a pinned "FAQ" post that has answers to questions like Q: "Can Christian Wade be called up to the active roster this season?" A: "No, he can not. He is an extra member of our practice squad in the International Pathways program and as such, is not eligible for call-up" Of course, judging by the various warnings and stuff we regularly need to distribute, no one reads @SDS pinned post about "No Covid, No politics" either, so I suppose it would just be clutter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 For the umpteenth time, Christian Wade is indentured to the Bills PS and cannot play in a game. They needed to put him on the active roster before the season if they were going to use him. This is the 21st century version of the reserve clause (in football instead of baseball). I think Wade finally gets out from under it next year so we can see him on opening day 2021. Wade haterz need not reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just MY observations (and I'm not one to make people see everything MY way), you see Wade in these types of videos. From my perspective, he seem more of a part of this team than Yeldon. Yeldon is a better running back. Yet I think if given the opportunity, Wade can make a strong impression. I would love to see Wade in a game just to see what he is made of, what he can really do.

So if buffalo cut him they wouldnt be eligible to be signed? I think it would remove any ps squad eligability with the team. Its all far fetched. Without a preseason he had no shot. I think another offseason and a preseason he could replace Roberts as a return man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
