many have wondered why he doesn't seem to be in contention for a starting job. He did have knee surgery which kept him out of spring football. He's been full go all camp, but told me he was working on getting confidence in the knee back. However, a bigger factor, I had been told by a couple of people that after the knee surgery he lost quite a bit of weight. Was down in the 205-210 range. Not sure where he's at right now, but assume he needs to get some of that weight and strength back, which would be a logical explanation.
