Maybe he has just now caught up to everyone else in the stamina department and is now fully healthy and in game playing form. That would explain the lack of playing time. They might have given him a few plays early on in the season to do both test him and get the early season gitters out. Then hold him back and piss him off from a Pshcholigical stand point and then unleash him with something to proove. This in turn would provoke two things. To play harder, within the scheme, and win back his starting job. And most importantly force hime to step up and be the leader that corresponds to his playmaking ability. Maybe, just maybe, I am right and our coaches know how to motivate and
coach in two aspects of the game, both Physical and Psychilogical.

You might have something there
