How come I get the feeling we'll be reading this same story in Week 17
Because you're feeling the exact right thing. With a Wonderlic score of 7 it's going to take him a long time.
All this talk about why don't we use him more, utilize him properly, the coaches don't know what they're doing, etc is a waste of time. He probably still can't read defenses.
Two years ago handing him the ball was a good idea. Cuts down on him running the wrong route, doesn't play to his weakness of not being able to catch the ball away from his body and doesn't force him to read the defenses.
I think McVay has the right idea. Send him long. As a defense you have to respect his speed, there's not much to it and it will open up spaces underneath. When the D is back on their heels, throw him a slant.
