This isn't Little League where the coach's kid pitches and SS, hitting leadoff. That kind of stuff gets you fired in the NFL. If they are the better player they'll play. Until they prove that, everything else is speculation.

Andy Reid is my favorite football coach ever, but the one thing he does year after year is plays the same vets over and over and if he has a vet that for some reason he's in love with, then he is gonna get a majority of playing time over a younger guy. It takes an injury for him to play a rookie/young player.
