Sorry to hear that, but...next man up. Wouldn’t mind seeing a guy like Calvin Munson make the squad, and he has more versatility than King.
Really excited about the DL Cowart. Makes a splash play every game. Good to see a day 3 flyer pay off.
I’m interested if Gunner makes the 53 over a player like Berrios, despite being far less polished to this point. It wouldn’t shock me if BB saw this as worth the growing pains of his inexperience at WR, not just bc his punt return ability looks legit (and not so raw), but also as a sort of...”culture” add. Clearly, his teammates love him, but that’s not enough, it’s more his toughness, determination, hustle, hard work and presence on the field...which stands in contrast a bit to Berrios, the presumptive leader for that spot, who has also worked hard, of course, but whose availability is more in question, and who has been a little disappointing considering he may have been expected to come in, following his IR red-shirt year, and seize the opportunity. In the end, Gunner, while not yet as natural/experienced a pass-catcher, still has skills in that area and room to grow. Think this would be a good Patriot Way-type message while still being rooted in a legit “football decision.”
Wonder if we could see Pennel get the veteran courtesy sliiiightly early release. (Phrasing. Sorry, Mr. Kraft.)
