So what you're actually saying is that he didn't really look in the mirror hard enough?

Didn’t he hurt himself running in motion pre-snap?

I used to keep a list of all the tight ends that CSP brought to the Saints
through his first 7 or 8 years. The number got close to 100 different ones that had made the final 53. I quit counting years ago. In case no one has noticed CSP has a thing for the TE, LB and PK positions.

14 different PK from 2006-2021

Oh, man, I love me some Sean Payton but what a memory, that was terrible. What a nightmare. He just couldn't find somebody steady, and he kept changing horses all the time, and then he'd finally find someone and stick with them, even when they became head cases and started missing. We fans were spoiled by having Morton for so long. But Payton was always kicking the tires on new kickers, and never satisfied.

Trout looked to have all the attributes to be successful NFL TE. Liked him, never hated him even when he let us down in clutch situation. Infortunelty he was just not the real deal. Out played by UDFA WR changed to TE … the writing was on the wall to be read by all.

I love this new show format with Brooke as the moderator.

The whole 2022 season, watching Russell Wilson struggle, one could not help but think "he just needs a weapon like Adam Trautman."

Elway had Sharpe. Brady had Gronk. Maholmes has Kelce. Now Russ has Trout. Let Russ cook pescatarian!

I think it boils down to the fact that he couldn't get separation. That will limit his opportunities if the QB isn't comfortable with him.
