Do they play him Monday night or let him sit and heal with bye week coming up after? I’d prefer to just shut him down until after the bye…it’s a long season, gonna need him healthy

Just depends how he’s feeling, I imagine. He’ll have that extra day - and given his slow start, the O’s (relative) struggles, games against an unbeaten nemesis, Monday night, won’t be surprised if HE really wants to go. Two weeks off after that. OTOH, yeah, the coaches shouldn’t hesitate to give him that extra week, get healthy for the very long stretch run.

Rest him. That gives him 3 full weeks off. He wasn’t healthy in training camp either. Hammy then now ankle, plus the knee last year… Been taking a lot of bumps
