Kevin Toliver dwindling playing time?

Has he been benched or suspended? Not sure i saw him in the Arkansas game or recent games (checked participation log for Ark and didn't see a snap logged). I know he had a suspension earlier this year for a half a game I think. Seems like he has been passed up by White and Jackson with D thomas getting the 3rd DB spot. He was all world recruit coming out of high school. Looks to be above average in coverage but very poor in tackling. Thoughts?

I think he'd be a great safety. He just doesn't know when to turn around for the ball.
6'2 about 195. Have him gain about 15.
He's quick, rangy , physical and can tackle.

He hasn't even been above average in coverage

Plays on special teams. DJ & DT have just been playing better. I expect him to play a lot next year. But who knows, there is a lot of potential talent on this team.

Our other two CBs are just outrageously good. He'll start next year and be improved.

Was held out of Arky game for injury but I believe he dressed.
I read that this morning... The Advocate I think.

Gotcha - saw him dressed but never on the field

Thomas is more deserving and better than Tre in that Nickel spot. I do think KT is better than Donte.

I'd say he has and that's he's shown flashes of very good coverage (mainly during freshmen year), but he's definitely been roasted some this year. Now his tackling.....he looks timid and scared to body up. He has regressed a little this year while Jackson has excelled.

The reference to him not playing was kinda like held out for injury but we don't know what it is...

He actually seems to be great in coverage, but not so great in playing the ball. Obviously that is part of coverage responsibility, but worth noting. It's not like he gets beat often, he just doesn't excel in one on one situations.

I think he lost something in the Offseason after the surgery. Thomas has been lights out as of late. I expect him to come back 100% next season and contribute again

You said it so it must be true. With the exception of the blown white coverage last night, every time I see an opponent catching ANYTHING, it's on Jackson. I see the dreds wagging. He gives up too much cushion and lacks the size to fight for the 50/50's.

Hasn't fully recovered from an injury. Don't read into it any more.

You are free to your opinion. It does not match mine, many others here, Raymond, or aranda.
But maybe you are right
