No audition for Lance?

This coming Tuesday is the 'Turk's' visitation day and quite a few players will have adjustments coming to their door steps...I'm sorry for the young quarterback, but if he so desires, his opportunities have not died.

Will Grier still has to play a half.

So we carry 3 QBs on the regular roster? I can't see Lance going to the PS.

Are you for real?

There will be 3 qbs regardless on every team due to the Purdy rule.

He’s our future starter. 8)

I realize he's supposed to play the entire game but what if he decides to have an injury you know fake one or didn't wanna finish they better have Trey Lance fitted for a uniform and make him finish the game lol just go in there running running plays and Wildcat easy dink and dunk plays

If we are just going to cut Grier then why are we wasting snaps on him this next preseason game? I know that Lance isn't ready, so those snaps should go to Rush to warm up for the season. We don't need to be a charity for Grier. If he's not in the future plans then it makes no sense to give him those snaps. I understand being nice guys, but this is a harsh business.

Rush is our QB2 so if Dak goes down and Rush gets injured tonight who becomes the back up? You can't play Rush so that's why Grier is getting the audition. What a gamble on Grier's part though. Think about it. He will be auditioning behind our 2nd and 3rd stringers. Good luck!

Dude hasn’t even practiced yet

That's not how the rule works. The 3rd QB still has to be a part of the 53 man roster. They can just be used in emergencies on gameday without counting against the 48 gameday active.

Because they don't want to risk injuries to rush or Dak. Lance hasn't practiced so it wouldn't be fair to send him out. Grier has a chance to show other teams what he can do and they will be watching him.

If he didn't know this he's living in a different world.

For the blue collar workers:
Boss: "We're sorry, but we're going to have to let you go. We've hired someone better to take your place, but they won't start until 2 days from now. Until then, I expect you to come into work and complete all your tasks before the new guy arrives."
Employee: "Sure thing Boss, no problem."

Grier absolutely said thank you. Are you kidding? He gets to play an entire game to show other teams what he can do. he either steps up and plays really well, and if he does, he will gt picked up. Or he sucks and then he doesnt get picked up. Either way though, it is 100% in his hands what happens. A young qb cant ask for much more.

Not even Close to being a good comparison.

The NFL implemented a revised third quarterback rule for the 2023 NFL season in response to the 49ers sustaining injuries to both of their active quarterbacks in the NFC Championship Game.[4] The third quarterback can be placed on an inactive roster spot where he would not use a spot on the 53 player active roster. He may enter the game if the quarterbacks on the active roster are injured or disqualified.
