Beck Water Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Just now, BillyBilliams said: The Injury report. He's not on it. He's physically healthy to play. Players go on the injury report when....wait for it...they're injured in a game and receiving treatment, or are limited and don't fully participate in practice. Players coming off IR or PUP do NOT go on injury report for the same injury when they are practicing fully (and possibly still receiving "routine" treatments). "Practicing fully" does not necessarily mean "performing better than Elam and Benford in practice" 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I have not been at practice, nor have I sat in on all his meetings with trainers and doctors. Therefore, I have no desire to have a firm yet completely uninformed opinion. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) 4 minutes ago, Beck Water said: How do you know this? I don’t think it’s too hard to figure out with White having been back at practice a while, McDermott and Eric Woods and Chris Brown’s comments. It appears all about confidence at this point. He’s physically ready but not mentally. IMO, it’s time he plays or goes on IR. And that is no bash on White. It’s just time to lace them up because the team needs you and you are physically ready or look forward to next season if he can’t mentally get over the hurdle. One or the other.

I see 5 active WR on yesterday's gameday roster. Strangely enough, this was achieved through NFL rules without the need to inactivate Tre White on IR. 1 minute ago, BillyBilliams said: Because he's on the active roster and is not on the injury report.

"Practicing fully" does not necessarily mean "performing better than Elam and Benford in practice" So you agree then? He's physically able to play. Nobody is saying we want 50 snaps. Putting him in for 10-15 snaps a game isn't asking for a lot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were posters saying that Eric Wood and Chris Brown were starting to question Tre White’s desire to start playing in yesterdays pre-game show. Transcript? Not that I'm saying some posters are unreliable in interpretation of events. But I'd love to read or hear exactly what they said. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I know the OP is getting slammed for the post but the more this goes on the less wrong he is. You have teammates getting shot up with painkillers to get through a game and despite being healthy you aren't mentally ready? This isn't MLB or Basketball where teams can afford rest games for their stars. Its time for Tre to play. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like A.J. Klein is. And if you're trying to do a "gotcha" thing with Tanner Gentry, you're a fool. Absolutely no way they'd line him up in a WR role. He's nothing more than a ST.

I'm feeling more and more proud of my stance as each game passes. Right now Tre White is $17M in dead cap for this team. It's preventing us from being a serious contender for OBJ. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being uninjured does not mean "physically able to play a game at a level better than the other DB can put forth right now". Giving a guy 10-15 snaps a game is a luxury of preseason. If a guy is on the active gameday roster, the Bills need to believe he can play a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So IR Tre White so we can sign the next great practice squad wr. Maybe we can talk Jerry Rice out of retirement? So it's Tre White plays on Thursday or he's preventing us from signing Jerry Rice... Got it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
