This kid has talent - have watched his games and when healthy, he breaks through arm tackles, has power and first level quickness but not great second level speed.
However, his last game he did not look the same. He was running into the backs of his own blockers and he was not getting yards after first contact.
In my years of experience I believe that no news from Shanny is where the Shenaningans come from. Shanny made it a point to say that Helu looked better after Wednesday's practice, that is good. It is clear he likes Helu, that is good. Helu practiced all week which is also good.
Here is my plan:
I have Helu penciled in at the moment.
If Torrain is active for today's game, I am taking Helu out.
If Torrain is inactive and ANY positive news comes out today re: Helu's health I am playing Helu.
If Torrain is inactive and any negative news comes out re: Helu or news about increased carries for Royster, I am not playing Helu.
If no news comes out, I will probably end up not playing Helu.
No news scenario: I will probably end up plugging in one of the usual rb suspects who has started and performed at least one time this year.
