You would think Gibbs must see something in him or he would not still be with our team after being inactive for 10 games and not playing special teams.

No matter what caused the lack of work, I think Gibbs has sent the message: work hard or sit. Now if McCants doesn't work hard enough he can only blame himself, Gibbs has made it clear what he expects. And from the sounds of things, McCants is looking to earn his playing time the hard way. It's just another sign of the team-wide attitude adjustment that is taking place under Gibbs.
