I know the focus has been mainly contracts and whether or not Taco and Hill are busts, BUT I haven't noticed Chris Westry or heard much discussion about him?

Is he hurt? Not performing?

I would have thought his size/speed would stand out on Special Teams...

Thanks.
Mike Jackson not playing isn't a great sign (unless injured), seeing how game one was not great for him.

I'm hoping Westry gets in these next 2 games. I'm guessing he's more of a Practice Squad caliber guy right now.

Mike Jackson was injured with a hamstring, Westry with an ankle.
CB Mike Jackson Jr. (hamstring) CB Chris Westry (ankle)

Fans fell in love with his freakish size but that should have told you he can't play in the NFL. Waste of time.

Would like to see Kyle Queiro play, but idk what his deal is.

Westry is just tall. Pads and hitting broke out in camp and he made a business decision ...jk.

don't be surprised if Westry does not even play at all during preseason,
1) in an effort to not expose him to the eyes of the rest of the NFL, whereas they can try to sneak him thru waivers en route to
practice squad ...
2) or if he has a significant high sprain ankle ..then they could well stash him on IR
we know he has zero chance of making 53 roster, so it's more about stashing him for next year.

Reminds me of the S they drafted years ago and was about the same size.
Patrick? But can't remember if that was his 1st or last name.

Well, he couldn't play either.

That's the NFL's list, not mine.

Lenoir probably reverted to IR pending a settlement.

A player released injured, goes through waivers, if unclaimed reverts to IR and then normally gets an injury settlement.

They list all player on the DNP list in the off-season.

During the regular season, they just list the inactive players that are on the 53 man roster and don't list players on IR/PUP/NFI etc..

Was my pet cat but I think Olumba has taken his place on the 53 next year. Hopefully Westry has a great PS season and next year make the team after Byron Jones is let walk or tagged and traded for a 2nd round pick. Maybe if Olumba really, really shines early we can trade Jones mid season for that 2nd and save the tag for Dak.

Patrick Watkins
Watkins was actually an OK bottom of the roster player that would have been OK as a backup that could get them though a game or two here and there if a starter was injured; however, he was forced into starting 9 games as a rookie which was obviously not a good move for a rookie 5th round pick.

He originally played FS with 9 starts his rookie season.
- They signed Ken Hamlin in Watkin's 2nd season and played him at FS.
- They moved Watkins to SS, but Roy Williams was the starter there for 2 more seasons.
- Campo became the DB coach in Watkins' 3rd year.
- I still have vivid memories of from back then of:
- Terence Newman pointing his finger at Watkins and looking at the coaches after a busted play.
- Terence Newman shoving Dave Campo during a heated argument.

He lasted 5 years in the NFL and lead the Cowboys in special teams tackles some of those years, IIRC.

He was cut by the Cowboys and Chargers due to injury issues. Neck, knee, knee.

Looking it up it appears he sat out of football for a year and then played 5 years in the Canadian Football League. It appears he played CB up there.

Yes, thanks. I was going to edit my post to say Patrick Walker. So I would have been close. I didn't think he played that much for us. I knew he started a few games though.
