Probably one of the reasons he couldn't cut it in Cleveland. He is nothing more than an emergency measure for us, seriously hope we get an upgrade next year.
But we have an upgrade right now! Ihenacho and Blackmon! And move Cravens to SS for coverage's sake! Anybody would be an upgrade over Whitner the way he's playing!
Cooley and Kevin were crazy about him still being on the field. They said we don't owe him anything, and they didn't care if he was a great locker room guy, at some point if he can't run, get him out of the field.
They got a solid point imo saying if the veteran is doing rookie mistakes, you might as well have a rookie in there (Cravens).

I wonder who decides the secondary starters. Is it Jay, Joe Barry or does it fall to Perry Fewell?
I've been watching Whiffner lately and man, I am not sure what the coaches are seeing.
I loved that quote..."if he's going to make rookie mistakes, you might as well have a rookie playing". At least with a rookie, there's some potential upside.

Yes! Forgot about him, while I liked what we saw of him. One more reason not to play Whitner!

I'm wondering the same thing... I'm guessing it's talk between the 3, but does anyone know for sure? I'd say the HC has the last word on these matters but not sure.
