Maybe there was someone else they wanted to protect and figured it was easier to just bring this kid up to the roster instead of protecting him each week.

Can't wait until final week of the season when Buechele lights up that team. Some dumb team, ie like the Chiefs used to be, will trade a first round pick for him. Rinse and repeat the process during the Mahomes era.

Me too. I was pretty surprised, as Moore's style was more in the Mahomes type wheelhouse whereas Henne is more old school, leadfoot stand in the pocket kind of thing. They didn't really change much when Moore went in; he just isn't Mahomes, but then nobody is.

Also surprised as bad as overall QB play is in the NFL that nobody picked Moore up. He was certainly better than like the bottom 1/3rd of starters.

Anyway.

I've been wondering if they'd start the develop and flip for picks thing with developmental QB's like Reid did so much of in Philly.

Looks like my niece.

This was my first thought - someone was trying to sign him off our PS and we just protected him.

Well, I mean, it’s in the ****ing tweet.

By god it is. How about that.

Just protect 1st down Tommy!

He’s the new punter

We can protect 4 each week and we've only protected a couple over the last couple of weeks. Didn't they change the rule about how many guys could be active each week if 1 was the 3rd string QB and 1 was an 8th O-lineman? Perhaps Henne is injured/COVID. The only caveat is that if we try to put him back on the PS, he has to clear waivers.

I do see that Remmers was placed on IR, but it might just be the short-term one.

Might be a respect thing. If another team wants to roster him, we should probably show the same respect, especially if we want to sign other guys similarly in the future.

Disrespectful to Tommy F'n Townsend...

I wish this made sense to me.

Writing's on the wall for Mahomes.
