He would have been if he hadn't gotten hurt in the preseason.
Until I hear that he's 100% healed and can pass a physical to play it doesn't matter what roster he's on, he'll be no more than a clipboard holder.
Sure he could be a jet, but that doesn't mean he'll play.
If they want to bring him in to start, why not get something in return?
Don't they do sign and trades? He owes the org. that much.
