Nate Byham out for season | Page 5

I had high hopes for Byham...too bad. I guess that clears things up at TE now.Reuland probably moves up to the 53 and we use a DL for 3 TE blocking sets.

Yeah, had to figure the guy isn't recovered from his ACL tear from last year and he has been missing practice. Reuland has been playing well and there is a chance they might not even keep 3 TEs with Dobbs. He was so far behind he could never catch up even if he got healthy he probably would have only got a game or two to showcase himself. If he would have been healthy he would have had a shot.

Demarcus Dobbs will be our 3rd TE/DL. Free up an extra spot for somebody else

Possibly. Depends on how much value Garbageman has and if they think they can keep him on the PS. Walker goes to FA next season.
