Don't know.  He's not starting.  

Ugh. I don’t like that. I hope they got/get serious reps in practice. I get the why bother playing them in meaningless games and risk injury sentiment. But
 

A) They are rookies and need the reps. 
B) It’s a clear fact without proper reps at game speed players are WAY WAY more sustainable to injury during the beginning of the season. Especially old boys like Paradis.

Yeah.  If you don't mind, please take it to the other three threads.  Lots of opinions shared on this.
Horn didn't dress, so he's not playing.

It’s fair to assume that the league is beginning to realize that preseason isn’t as valuable as once perceived. 
 

Last year’s lack of preseason really changed the mindsets of franchises

Preseason is for evaluation. And letting fans get to know the new guys.

I think this is more of “can tremble show out and take Ian’s job” rather than “let’s put Ian in to secure his job”

I can see that I suppose as he isn't a rook. Yet T Marshall and B Christensen but no J Horn? Agree that preseason is becoming less and less neccessary for risk but if our first rounder can't even see some action why even put either of the first 3 picks out there? We got the Taints week 2 these fellas are going to get tested early.

This is an all time high for preseason freak out. Impressive

I'm not sure what's so confusing about the situation. We've seen the depth chart. We've seen the starting lineup for today.

He said we wouldn't see starters because they got their reps on Thurs and Friday and cuts are coming early week.

That's what we are seeing happen.
