The Texans completely misused him, their O line is awful. As someone stated, look at Ingrams stats once leaving.
We dont have anyone like him on the roster, kind of thought McKinnon was going to be that guy but he never did anything and now hes hurt. Lindsay is fast and he makes people miss. He could be a really good addition to this RB group. Also the timing is perfect, we have an extra week to incorporate him into the offense. Our next game is the Broncos! Would be great to have him help us beat them. HA! I would definitely take a chance on him. |

Hrmm....yeah i didnt realize the Texans are just where RB's go to die. Legs look live here, albeit even Gore would make this play.

How is he in pass protection?
Because while I completely agree with DJLN and I'd love to have his speed on this roster, Reid's simply not going to play him unless he can block. |

![]() This would easily be the biggest issue. He's a pretty poor pass blocker. The major question would ultimately be if, as a veteran player, he's at least a WILLING pass blocker. I don't need a RB pancaking fools, but he's gotta know where to go and be willing to get there. Just stand in someone's way and that's good enough for me.

They could line him up as a slot WR though. He can catch and make people miss. |

Again, I'm not talking about a difference maker here. I'm talking about someone you put out there for maybe 15 snaps/gm. Probably more like 10. Give Clyde 35-40 snaps, Williams 15-20 and Lindsay around 10-15. Figure 65-70 snaps/gm most games if you're moving the ball okay. And in those 10-15 snaps you use motion, etc... to try to freeze defenders (who again, aren't blitzing Mahomes anyway these days) and run some misdirection stuff to get him out on the edges. His speed could absolutely be useful - just take him for what he is (purely a scat-back) and not for what he's not (any sort of all-purpose weapon or potential bellcow).

Bah, who cares. He's going to be a very game plan specific back for us anyway. He's not coming in to be an every down back. If he sucks at it they simply won't ask him to do it.

I like Lindsay and think he can probably have his pick from a few options at this point. It's not like he just went to HOU and forgot how to play.
Two 1k yard seasons and 16 rushing TDs in his first 2 seasons with Denver, then Gordon comes in and his production is cut in half on yards. Kid goes from catching 35 each of those first 2 years to 7 with Gordon. Then, he moves on to HOU and that was never an ideal situation. I could see him being a very nice addition for the Patriots, Chiefs, Packers, Bills, Cardinals, Titans... even the Bucs. Why wouldn't any of those teams want to add his upside at this point in the season? And, they can get him cheap.
