I don't think it 'unwise' in the LEAST to keep him on the bench no matter what he's being paid. Frankly... it would terrify me to think our coaching staff would even consider that a factor.

They actually sound interested in using him, just not as a pure WR.

Snead and McVay are echoing one another on this:

Quote

With Watkins in the mix, the Rams can use Austin as more of an offensive weapon rather than a true No. 1 receiver. He can line up in the backfield, run screens and short crossing routes, getting the ball in his hands quickly so he can do what he does best: make defenders miss.

That's Austin circa 2015.

With Watkins in the mix creating more space, the Austin 2015 role is even more dangerous.

That is the only way it can work for TA and us IMO

  Rams don't expect Tavon Austin's role to change under McVay.
