Players will understand the change if it comes week 1

Pre season is tough to gauge. If Lance looks great against a bunch of scrubs then is that really a good test? Maybe they will let him start a game with and against the 1's.

It's all about the practices, players and coaches would know when he's ready and Kyle will play him when/if that's the case. One thing for sure the players would know from the get go his arm and athletically just different from Jimmy. But if they're winning and Jimmy isn't playing poorly Lance won't see the field until injury

If Jimmy is playing solid football and the team is winning like you said it might take a injury for trey to get his chance like when Alex Smith got hurt then kaepernick got his chance. People in Kansas city were saying that the coaches new Patrick mahomes was ready to play in the middle of the season but they didn't play him because the chiefs were winning and Alex was playing pretty good.

Dam...Trey's hands are smaller than everyone's including Alex Smith and pipsqueak Kyler Murray. Lawrence, Wilson, Jones, and Fields all have bigger hands.

Mahomes and Joe Burrow have similarly sized hands. Doesn't mean anything.

Nobody, because everyone was on the same page about this pick. York wanted Lance too.

Interesting. Lots of screens to start the game. Then some longer passes. Also a long TD on a broken coverage play. But I think Lance could do much of that...

Currently airing on AT&T sportsnet. Hopefully it's uploaded to YouTube for all to watch.

This is a fun take. Zac played QB in HD and I think college.

Good grief I love everyone excited for this kid. But let's remember rg3 came off winning the heisman and lance hasn't played in a year and when he did it was on a stacked double A team, literally more dominant than Alabama.

RG3 also played in a spread offense at Baylor and played on a much weaker roster with Washington that season.

No question if Kyle wants to play him that Lance can play well.

If he looks bad in preseason then he'll still be better than Jimmy concrete feet. Shanny is using like 50 percent of his playbook with that 1 read, slow processing bum out there

Now you're just saying anything.

Anything

Exactly, players and coaches know when a kid is ready. When the vet is playing well and winning you gotta ride that wave still, this is the perfect situation really. Jimmy is auditioning for a starting job next year so there's no doubt you're going to get the best from him
