The dude has been videoed for months during high intensity workouts.  And today he is sore?  Wth

That's ehat makes me believe this is a move to lessen his load from the staff because they know he's physically ready or just really doing it with an overabundance of caution as proactive maintenance?

Oh for fugs sake, we let a player play/practice injured and people bitch and complain (rightfully so). Then when we actually do the smart thing and play it cautious with a guy coming back from injury and......... people bitch and complain. He'll be fine, they just don't want to over do it right off the bat just in case.

I've heard on Pat McAfee show that guy's sometimes get injured/reinjured doing work outside the stadium. Then force themselves through the first practice to make sure they are "injured" in camp. Because there are clauses in contracts that limit pay if injured outside the stadium. 

that would work here if Horn was put on NFI/PUP but he was put on Active PUP. So that really doesnt play a role in this situation. 

 

The coaching staff is just playing it safe, and dont want to run him into the ground in July.

I thought so too, but when he announced that he was looking to add another CB, it made me wonder

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
