Well he has a torn ACL so there's no chance of him coming back this season anyway.

There is at least the possibility of him being effective next year.

He's a FB who was probably gonna touch the ball even less than Ovie did. If he has an average-to-above-average recovery, he should be ok next season.

Well that't the thing. He's a blocker and a pass catcher. I believe that is why they went after him is because he has really go hands for a FB.

Real Talk. I mean....damn this guy was suppose to replace Ovie. Oh Well" We still have Mike Cox I guess to come through.

I'm just sayin, it takes 2 years to recover. Always does. We always have a rookie fall to the IR.
This is also the year that Meier should shine at full strength.
