Hmmm... It will be hard for him to make the Pro Bowl on the bench. So, as long as the defense is playing really well without him, what is the motivation for the Skins to put him on the field?
If the defense stumbles, they'll go to him for help; but until then, it won't surprise me to see Arrington on the field for less than a dozen snaps of the ball.

That verbage in the contract sounds correct from what I've read, but I just can't imagine Gibbs or Williams not playing LaVar because of language in his contract. Whether the defense is doing good or otherwise. I think they want to win so badly, and win right now that couldn't possibly be a factor in holding him out of the line up.
That would shock me if that were the case.
