Classy move that helps both sides, even if just minimally
Wasn't formally announced, but sounds like Means is taking one of the 53 man spots with Carrie signing to the PS.
Not a bad move here. Carrie has been a solid enough player throughout his career. Versatile as well. Can think of a lot worse options to have on the PS, especially with Fuller going down.
Carrie has been one of my odd favorites for awhile. Nothing great but has played outside CB, slot, and S in his career. Reminds me a lot of Brandon Stephens but without as much natural talent/athleticism.idk much about Carrie and i doubt he's an option for this week on this short notice anyway - but as you describe him he definitely sounds like he's worthy of a PS spot right now
Pepe played all the snaps on the final drive, initially in replacement of Stephens (not sure why he was out, maybe just to give Pepe some reps) and then stephens came back in after fuller's injury with Pepe staying in the game - gonna go through those reps again to see how i think about Pepe but i imagine he's next in line for a significant portion of fuller's reps if peters isnt ready to go

It's official - he's been signed to 53.he did fine against fairly weak opponents - salary not guaranteed, no risk to elevating him especially as you know he's going to play at least the next 3 games (so he'd have to be elevated to the 53 before the bills game anyway)
I could be wrong but man it feels like Pepe is on his way, he got a ton of coverage all throughout camp, and he got a ton of reps in PS and he was a tier above the competition for most of it, and now he’s jumping right into the gameday action.idk much about Carrie and i doubt he's an option for this week on this short notice anyway - but as you describe him he definitely sounds like he's worthy of a PS spot right now

I’m real excited to see his snaps next week
Can we trade for him please

Tooney on playing time:
“I mean, at the end of the day I did my job. I get paid to do one thing, do my job, bro. I get paid to play, not coach. I don’t know what the plan was. I did prepare as if I was going in to play every play. I don’t know what else to say.’’
I'd like to have him as well, but I'm a little concerned he could turn into a problem child/ distraction if things don't go his way.
Ive heard rumblings that he can’t be trusted to run routes ala breshad perriman shit, wrong place wrong timing etc. and that’s not something that’s gonna go over well with us.do we know if this is actually true given that it's come from that account lol
especially given he's on the injury report today with a hamstring...
my thought initially was that he didnt play much on sunday because he's not had a ton of practice time the last few weeks
if he's available then you obviously jump on it (depending on price) - he's got that special special level of ankle and lower-body flexion - has one of the most insane change of direction abilities ive ever scouted in college
They about to call me to rush the passer
Slim pickins at free agent LB. Maybe bring Jamie Collins in for a workout and possible prove it deal. Not much to get excited about though
