"Rinehart has come a long way from the guy who failed badly in his brief tryout at tackle in the previous preseason. It's one thing for Cerrato, who drafted Rinehart, to say he has potential, but I've heard it from several other people as well."

We'll find out soon enough!

I hope that report is right about him. All I'm saying is he has played exactly zero regular season snaps and now he's starting. Like I said, makes me nervous. Obviously I'm pulling for him though.
