Likelihood Jeff Otah is cut?

Anyone have any news on the health of Jeff Otah?

He played in 27 of 33 possible games through his first two seasons. He has appeared in 4 of 32 possible games in the past two seasons. What is the likelihood he is cut, either in a cost saving measure or to bring in someone who is actually going to play?

I kinda feel like this is his final year to get poo together or be gone. It's nice knowing Bell is a capable guy in case it doesn't work out.

Edit: Why does shi censor to poo? I mean really, what are we, 12 here?

SHlT no we ain't

I heard they want to get him on weight monitoring program this offseason and (sort of impossible last offseason) and see where he's at. Let rivera and staff have an offseason with him and see if anything changes.

Like jayflip said, it's not a monstrous contract, and he was a great run blocker when he was right.

if you're older than 12 why would you care?

no incentive to cut him. as others have said, cheap rookie contract. great price for even a backup.

low risk, high reward. if he gets beat out of a roster spot at TC, then fine. but cuting him prior to that just doesn't make any sense.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
