I know a lot of people though he revived his career in his first year in Indy. I looked into it more and according to this podcast, he dealt with a groin injury for most of his second year there but turned it on towards the end of the season. And going into free agency, they unanimously slotted him to be a high level starter at the position.

The all 22 is unavailable for last season but from the condensed games I watched (especially against the Bucs and Bills), he appeared to be playing at a high level.

Another issue RT . I assume 77 will start . To me 73 is out of position at G . Play him at LT and work around these other issues , not sure I want Peters protecting Daks blind side to start this game .

Go with Rhodes and Diggs , Bland has the slot I guess Alexander is your dime . Nashon Wright is a break glass in case of emergency and Joseph strictly ST and if he gets a penalty bench him .

The other day he was still on the practice squad. Has he even been elevated to the roster yet?

When was the last time Rhodes played? Last year?
Did they even call him up from the practice squad?

It just makes me nervous that we are counting on him to save the day beginning with the first playoff game against a HoF QB. I wish he had at least 1 game in the regular season to show what he can do.

But as others have said, This is where we are at and there really is nothing more we can do about it. There are no Deion Sanders sitting on the sidelines waiting to get the call.
