It also worked for Terrell Pryor. In both cases its a risk mitigator against scheme fit, locker room fit, or contract vs limited sample of "great play"...
Plus and others have mentioned this...contracts of younger performers on the team are coming up...which is true but that leads to obvious bigger discussions with Jordon Reed and Josh Norman contracts not this year but next. Im fairly confident unless Norman has a great/probowl season(he very well could) or Jordan Reed actually stays healthy and performs as a top 6-7 Tight End (he very well could)...both could be last years with the team...which would create the space we needed. Or we could redo their deals...but if one or both don't perform they absolutely WILL NOT get their full money in 2019 from the Skins.
