Is he a standout?

he stands out when I see him on the field.  I'm like, who is that guy we just picked up. 

[Hoenheim]

I wouldn't be suprised if Horn actually plays in all 17 games that means we have a .500 record or better. Kinda the same if the o line doesn't have any major injuries.  The healthiest o line years we've had in the past has typically coincided with better seasons.

So we’ll get an extra 2 games out of him I guess.

To confirm - that's officially $12.4 mil for 2025 on the books.  

guaranteed for injury only. I know I know he's always hurt. But if he sucks this year or misses more time this year but can pass a physical after the season we can cut him with zero $ on the books. 12.4 isn't much for a corner these days. easy decision in my view to pick up the option.

After Thomas Davis' third ACL surgery, I was pounding the drum for him to move on.  He played his best ball after that and was solid for many more years.  You just never know.

My Joke on another thread was if we draft the CB from Bama McInstry.  We could call them the Aid Brothers--Kool and First.

I mean what else were we going to do we have to give him one last shot. I'm hoping from here all the sudden he's healthy the rest of his career for several seasons but that sounds like a dream scenario.

At some point you just chalk it up to bad luck or some guys just have a higher propensity for injuries.

We'll see.

He was at the stadium the other day on the sideline, planting some shrubs and putting a porch swing outside the blue tent. 

OK i am done.

[Camp Fodder]

He’s one of very few blue chip players we have so this move makes sense to take the chance.
