As we often hear about injuries, the most difficult part is t he mental hurdle in trusting your body is healthy. That is something to consider if we get some guys that missed several weeks due to injury and play Sunday vs Detroit. If they can't get through a quarter or limited snaps vs Detroit, we don't want them using one of the active roster spots in a Playoff game.
If any player is considered a possible for the Divisional Round, I want them to get some limited action vs Detroit. If for nothing else to shake out some cob webs and build some mental trust in their recovery. If they get hurt again, well, not to be mean, but we already didn't have them so we're not losing anything, we're just not gaining anything.
