He has the size, blocking ability, extraordinary speed, and excellent hands required to be among the best in the league.

I think it has a chance of working if indeed they use him full-time as a H-back/TE/special team player. All the QB power and QB packages are going to need to be dropped and it'll take a big commitment from Carmichael and Taysom both. Very rare for a player in his 30's to make a position change, and there's a reason for that. If anyone can it's Taysom, but it's a big ask.
