Kugbila to IR

Your link itself says he would have needed to be on the final 53-man preseason roster, which clearly he won't be now.

 

He can be designated to return when placed on IR and so he counts towards the 53 man roster and someone has to be cut for him to return.

 

Not saying its going to happen but it would be a way to stash a player and give him time so that you didnt have to pray he would clear waivers and make it to the practice squad.

I'm sure the front office as well as fans are slightly disappointed, but if you thought a fourth round division 2 project was going to start and dominate week 1 I don't know what to tell you.

If you thought a 4th round div2 pick was going to be a project, don't draft him in the 4th round

meanwhile...

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver and fourth-round pick Quinton Patton made his preseason debut on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings and did not disappoint, catching four passes for 35 yards and a touchdown.

Patton did most of his damage working out of the slot, where the 49ers have a need for a player that can run clean routes and get separation. Quarterback Colin Kaepernick gave Patton glowing reviews on his first NFL game.

"He is a great player," Kaepernick said. "He is someone he just knows football. He knows how to get open. He knows how to make plays. I am looking forward to seeing what he can do for us.

"He is someone that it is easy to have chemistry with. He knows where windows are in defenses. He knows how to get open."

Wasn't he with the first team during walk-throughs? Why is it so unreasonable to think he would have been starting?

Roseanne Barr could walk on....and she would probably be with the first team.  Considering our starters are backup or even backups backup material, him doing so does mean much.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
