he’ll be in there quick

 

but you do have to make sure he at least has a chance if you know he’s not ready to play nfl football you need to wait

Im totally cool with making sure he’s healthy. Thats not what im meaning. But I dont want to hear a word about any up to speed mental stuff. The draft was in April. The scheme isn’t that complicated. Every teams QB figures it out after 1 series

Activated - nice

Looks like he’s playing

Now we wait to see if he gets rotated in at all. You'd think if they activated him this soon it isn't just to ride the bench all game.

Now that's interesting. What exactly does "expected to play" mean? I'll guess some rotated in snaps but White remaiming the primary starter. That is still a huge surprise considering McDermott has been constantly telling the media that Hairston is way behind on practice reps.

My hope tank is a little more full today. I really hope this kid comes in and just shuts dudes down.

Hey Dalton wanna help us out again and toss this kid a pick 6 on the first play

[Allen2Moulds]

whats the over/under on # of snaps.

Maybe McDermott has finally reached the point of "throw the young talented players in and let them take their lumps that the fanbase has wanted.

Hairston needs to start over Tre

 

Hancock should be in at S since he won’t be in at Nickel

 

Start Poyer with Hancock and hope you strike gold

[thewookie1]

My guess is Hairston plays in a rotation with White to prep him for KC where he’ll need to likely just run with Worthy all day. 
 

Poyer and Bishop on the back end with Hancock in reserve.

I'll happily eat crow for being wrong on this one. This is very uncharacteristic of cautious, conservative Sean McDermott. I saw no chance they'd activate him so quickly.

 

But this is a very good thing. It moves up the timeline on him eventually taking over for White. I'd still expect an ease in, ramp up process with a limited number of snaps this week that will be increased the next week if he doesn't look overwhelmed. 

 

But, hey, who knows? If they felt comfortable enough from him with what they saw on the Practice field and the meeting rooms to do this, anything's possible.

I wouldn't be surprised to see that.  Poyer back home in the box.  Hancock plays the free role.  And see what happens.  It's hard for that combo to be worse than Rapp Bishop.
