I honestly didn't need an explanation of our kickers. I get it. My hope is Kai is healthy enough to go ahead and cut Potter for the bye week and if we need to bring him back for the Dallas game then another move can be made, or maybe they can put him on the PS just so they have a guy to do special teams work. BTW can we bring in a punter for a workout, Sav isn't really getting it done anymore.
As far as the QB goes. I understand you POV, but at this point what is Rex really doing? III and Cousins are healthy, and most guys are usually coming off some kind of injury. It's not like we couldn't resign him if need be, and he is never active. He is always wearing street clothes.
But like I said, I see Merling and a DB or even Thompson (like you pointed out) as being players that could be expendable with the return of key pieces of our defense.
