Reid has always been weary of rookies no mater how talented. He will play a vet over a rookie especially one that handles the ball till that vet plays his way off the starting roster. Pat Mahomes is an example he was outperforming Smith in camp and practice the whole team was blown away yet he sat. Kareem was the same if not for Ware's career ending injury in preseason im sure he would have sat or had just rest snaps for Ware. I am sure Bieniemy had a lot of nagging and input into Kareem starting instead of trading for a starting back. Andy isn't unique here as many coach have same philosophy being reluctant to start rookies who handle the ball right out the gate. I do suspect Darwin has some playbook and QB protection problems to iron out but he is coming and soon i am sure as Shady was a way to give the kid some time to iron it out.
