Not even Darnold? He needs the time in game. 

Apparently it's a thing now.  A lot of teams are doing it. Most are opting to do joint practices and hold the starters the first preseason game to compensate for not having 4 preseason games.

I get it but he’s essentially a rookie. Might as well get him at least a few drives. Ah well.

We just did 2 days of scrimmaging. He got way more reps during that, than he would this afternoon.

 

Way too any folks willing to risk injury for a few meaningless Pre Season snaps.

They must be getting them in the joint practices against that teams ones.  That's all I can think off.

I guess my question is are we playing any rooks? Like our star corner?
