Based on what? He had a horrible preseason.

Again, define "gimmick." Why do you keep using the word? Is he being used on a bunch of trick plays? Is he only there to run the wildcat?
He's playing conventional positions. Right now, we know he can be an effective runner and effective catching balls on screens--that's no gimmick. If he can play the slot well, then that makes him multi-dimensional. I don't understand why being a jack of all trades is considered a gimmick. The only gimmick is that you never know where he's going to line up until the ball is snapped.
