Maybe, they're trying to keep his value less in order to sign him to a longer contract, I don't know, but I'll love to stop speculating and see the guy on the field. He might just be a difference maker, and activating him could better help evaluate him.

I'm with you Nola. I've actually asked several times on this forum on "why isn't he active this week?". Apparently the positional coaches & staff see it from a different perspective than we do

. All I know is that during t/c & subsequent pre season games, he performed better than the man in front of him ... even in mop up duty.

My guess is that he is activated either this week vs the Jets or Tampa.
