any further info on Gabe Davis being inactive yesterday?

[dave mcbride]

I ask because Coleman was his usual self these days: no significant plays made plus a mistake (rescued by a borderline PI call). Was Davis sick? I know the flu has been going around in a serious way, and maybe he got it? Otherwise, I don't see how he could be benched instead of Coleman. He's not great, but he gives the team more than Keon does at this point.

I have no idea nor have I heard anything about the rationalization... I assume that McDermott felt that Coleman, Cooks. Shavers and Palmer we all better options.. unless there is an injury I am not hearing about....  truth be told I would take Gabe over Coleman at this point... I am about done with 0 .

Sal said that it was a numbers game and with Palmer healthy someone had to sit out.

That sounds very strange to me given Coleman's recent healthy scratches and performance.

pulled a hammy walking and chewing gum?

Two things I "think" but obviously don't know:

 

1) Gabe may have had the Flu. Did anyone see Josh puking on the sideline twice during the game??

 

2) Is Gabe signed to the roster now? Isn't there a three game call up rule? He's had 2 so far...

Like that matters. Wow.

I did find it strange he was a scratch. Seems Cooks might be injured so he'll likely be back. 

It matters in the sense of getting the flu without a vaccine can lay one pretty low. It's spreading like wildfire among folks I know right now.

Yeah, Josh puking raised my eyebrow on this issue.

Davis is also on the roster and has played in four games.

He needs to be active over Coleman. 

[stlbills13]

Coleman made a nice downfield block so unfortunately he probably got more games. I would rather see Gabe out there 10 out of 10 times over Keon

Signed to the roster a few weeks ago, Samuel to IR in the corresponding move.

 

Really have zero clue why Davis would sit for Coleman. Davis is a better 3rd/4th receiver over Coleman.

I think Davis is better at everything than Coleman. I genuinely don't know that I can think of one thing Coleman is better at

It should have been coleman

[TheBeaneBandit]

Could be he was rehabbing that injury for so long that they felt he needed rest to not overdo it. Kinda doesn't completely have his legs under him so to speak.

That's just sympathetic morning sickness. 😇😁

[brianthomas]

wish we just would've kept Hollins. But from everything i've seen, Davis was sat because Palmer came back. Simple as that from what i've seen

Right now? Coleman has nothing.

 

Davis isn’t a number one, or two, but is a serviceable 3 or 4….most likely a 4 if we have a healthy WR room.  Davis isn’t great, but Coleman is a bust.

Allen also trusts Gabe Davis especially in the scramble drill which is becoming more and more a regular part of the offense lately. Just zero reason to dress Coleman over Gabe

 

Cooks had to get x-rays last night after the game so we may see both active this coming week. But Gabe shouldn't sit again this season

the team said yesterday before the game he was a healthy scratch
