Guido, I don't think I can ride with you on this one. Giving Brees, Jordan, or Streif a day off is one thing. But two guys who have played a total of 3 NFL games cannot by any stretch be considered regulars.

Young guys need all the reps they can get. So if they are not out there getting reps you have to wonder if something is actually going on.

I put Lattimore in this category too. Unless the kid is actually injured, he needs to be out taking reps in practice.

Not too sure about that. Ramczyk and PJ have practiced several straight days. No indication either had any issue yesterday. Makes more sense that since both have been there on all reps are both are expected starters that they got a day off. Lattimore did obviously get dinged. It was we he got tangled up with Thomas.

Lattimore has a sprained knee that is considered minor and was disclosed a few days ago; smart thing is rest and let him start as a reserve if it comes to that...

Considering how fast we can geaux through CBs, even if Lattimore has to come in rested, strong after a few weeks, it is better than combing the waiver wire...

But, yes, in a perfect world, he'd be out there practicing, developing, but it is what it is and better now than in the middle of a stretch run or playoffs...
