Or maybe they just came together. That season thanks to the strikes defense struggled early. League wide defensive numbers improved dramatically in the second month.
10 total receptions in a game is bad QBing, period. 2 is utterly pathetic. He’s done that. His overall numbers are just plain bad. Very few passes, very few competitions, very low competition percentage, bad TD to turnover ratio. In the end you can see exactly why he was 3rd on the depth chart.
The guy need to realize that he can extend his NFL career if he switches to tight end, H-back, or perhaps linebacker.
Otherwise he should think about heading to Canada football.
If you are referring to the Jets, he wasn’t third on their depth chart he was functionally off their depth chart. And Sanchez, their starter, is one of the quarterbacks that he might well have actually been an upgrade on.
