Yes, it took me a while but I managed to come up with a brilliant response to an equally brilliant "look at me" post.

Aldridge is not on the team because someone is not doing their job, it's because Thomas went down and a roster spot opened up, and Aldridge was someone that Vinny liked and he was really close to being the 53rd man on the roster a few weeks ago. So the opportunity presented itself to bring him back. Simple as that, no need to look any further.

If it had something to do with Betts or Rock, why are they still on the roster?

Really? They signed him because a roster spot opened up. Why didn't they sign a OL. So you are saying we need all the running backs we have now? If we do choose to sign a OL who you think will be one of the first out the door?

Thats a good question. I will just say this. Time will tell.

We need our depth everywhere. So if a OL is needed. Who are we going to get ride of a DL or one of our "many" rbs?

or maybe Henson..lmao

The replacement for Thomas is already on the roster, so you don't need to sign an OL just because you put one on IR. Besides, we're already carrying another OL on the practice squad.

If the need for another OL opened up, it's probably Mason or Aldridge that get let go.

Okay. That may be what happens. Maybe not. But why cut Rbs that have potential for a 30 yr old back that isn't producing and hasn't produced in years. I will admit Betts is excellent on screen passes. But I think Alridge is much better. But you might be right. But either way. If we need a OL. Someone is going to be gone. Maybe Betts Rock Mason or Aldrige. But like I said if they were doing their job why would he bring someone in. I would think it is because he did things better than some of the other backs. Why would Mason get some carries last game if Betts was producing? What has Rock done this year? Who knows. It could be anyone of them besides CP.

Mason had what, 3 carries, and basically did nothing. I wouldn't draw the conclusion that Mason was in there because of anything Betts was or wasn't doing. I think they wanted to work him in to his first live action and see what he could do.

Sometimes you have to just take things at face value. You seem to want to make everything into a conspiracy theory.

I honestly don't see Betts going anywhere during the season. If they need a roster spot they're not going to cut someone that will result in a cap hit of nearly $2M. Plus believe it or not the coaches like him.

I don't think Rock gets cut during the season either.
