Rush hasn’t been that dangerous, however he’s not a starting-caliber quarterback.
Beginning Lance would’ve made extra sense, even when it have been to drive his commerce worth up and transfer on from him.
Lance was at all times thought-about to be a challenge, but his growth – or lack thereof – has been reasonably alarming.
The San Francisco 49ers gave up quite a bit to get him within the first spherical of the NFL Draft simply to surrender on him shortly after.
Jones’ resolution to commerce for him made good sense on paper, as they might be getting a younger and proficient prospect at a reduction.
Nonetheless, it’s worrisome that he hasn’t even been capable of win the backup spot for this workforce.
At this level, it’s beginning to really feel like he won’t ever get it collectively.
