Etienne has to stay healthy because all three guys behind him are hurt or have dealt with injuries

He was put on season ending IR, which honestly is a good thing as it would have been extremely hard to justify him on the 53 and a good chance he wouldn't clear waivers.

Now he gets another year to develop and hopefully once Jordan is gone and we figure out how the other 3 edges not named Young fit in (or don't) on this team, we should have a spot for him.

Happy to see Jayden Price on the list. He played way better than expected in preseason

Keeping both Rattler and Wilson while parting ways with Taysom… just feels wrong.

I didn't see where he got seriously hurt, so I'm guessing this is the wink nod IR deal where he knows we're really high on him but that he isn't ready, and next year he'll have an excellent chance to stick, compared to being picked up by a random team and who knows where his fate lies then.

Not sure why you're comparing them as Taysom was never going to be used as a true QB here

That said, Taysom has been hurt and not the same for quite some time, and he is up in age as well. It was sad to see him losing his explosiveness over the years, but the way he played you knew it was inevitable.

It's impressive how they've flipped the roster in 2 years. Can't imagine still having Allen.

So no UDFA made the team this year? We usually have at least 1.
