Turner will have to miss at least the next 4 games, no timetable on his return.

Bowden signed to active roster. I assume he’s going to be our returner. Did they take Sheed’s return duties away due to the fumble or do they want him focused more on just playing receiver?

If they are taking it away it’s because they see what I see…a guy who is looking like a future #1.

He’s catching the ball so smoothly now, his routes continue to get better, and he’s devestatingly fast.

I think he’s the clear #2.

Actually thought he looked better as a returner in preseason than Bowden, but maybe Bowden has other skills of ST.

A number 1 lol?

I agree that he shoujd not have been returning anything once he established himself in the top 3 receiving core, especially with MT’s injury history. That is just stupid by our coaches.

No

D.A. addressed the fumble as a non issue. One of those things that happens when you haven't' has game contact in almost a year. Does not see that fumble as a worry based on Sheed's history.

If Bowden dresses for the game I see this.

That fumble was just as much a tremendous defensive play as it was a mistake by Sheed. I think the connection he and Carr have is the reason he's goin to be more of a full time receiver.
