Apparently will be activated for week 7. What do we expect against a decent Jets defense? Will he be full go or eased in?
Sauce Gardner is an excellent CB, and he will most likely shadow Tet. The rest of their CBs are trash. So secondary servers can do well against the Jets.
But the Panthers have to be excited about their ground game, plus the Jets offense is a mess, suggesting the Panthers won't be playing from behind, so the Panthers offense could go conservative.
I was puzzled he wasn't activated last week, after 3 straight full practices. I don't know if that's because he didn't look that great last week, or they were extra cautious, or what. But a typical first week of practice for an IR guy, if it goes LP, LP, FP - then he's usually active that weekend. Going FP, FP, FP, then staying inactive - that is very unusual IMO.
I'm itching to start him, but of all the guys I follow for rankings, not one of them ranks him in their top 50 this week. So there is risk. But if I leave him in the IR spot and he goes off anyway, I will have regrets.
