Apparently he tweaked his ankle or something on the first possession in the second half. It obviously wasn’t bad bc he can back in later. But I don’t think he carried again until the 4th quarter. I could be way wrong on this though

He was in on the last series until he got targeted and then Hill finished that series. I wonder if he went into concussion protocol. He took a vicious hit.

Speaking of aeris.... after gm 1 this yr i mentioned that he had lost a step this yr. I wondered what happened. I know sometimes guys bulk up so much in the weight room and rely on the natural speed talent that they drop off a bit. But he had that step back vs ul. Which begs the question... was he hurt most of this year?

Taking a bunch of hits during a season will slow a RB down as well. I've seen some NFL RB's say that sometimes it's Tuesday or Wednesday before they can even walk without pain during a season. There was a video of Jerome Bettis where he could barely get down his staircase a few days after a playoff game.

Not hard to lose a step during a season.

We are talking about game 1 and 2

I never heard anything official. I just assumed that, as the RB coach, Knox was letting more of his guys see the field. I've been wishing for this all season. Nothing against Williams, but Hill and Gibson are good enough to see the field more often and keep Williams fresh. OTOH, if one was looking to play the guy with the "hot hand" Williams appeared to be that guy.
