Just because he saw time with the 1s at practice doesn’t mean he’s ready to unseat anyone.

BK is too smart and too well thought out to not allow 2nd string lineman get experience with the 1s on occasion in case of injury. Can’t have Heard never playing with the 1s and expect him to play well if called upon. Same goes for Emory Jones if he never practices at guard but is expected to just slide on in if any injury occurs

What it means is that the coaches recognize the talent and are giving him opportunities to prepare him for future rolls. That is all.

Kelly directly stated that he prefers experience in a press conference recently. However, the question he was asked was how will the RB room play out. Not much of a stretch to realize that this is Kelly’s mindset. Go safe first. Then over the course of the season, things work themselves out.
