Braden will go. Steichen didn’t seem concerned. I think they are just using maintenance on that knee. We are going to see him practice off and on probably rest of season.
I'd rather Smith play (given how questionable he was before playing T J Watt and limiting him) and Kelly sit so that we can get to evaluate Tanor against a good defensive front again. Our OL gets manhandled every time we go there, a big reason why our offense has not been able to do well in Jacksonville. I would like to know if Kelly is a weak link now.
I agree, and I'm not writing him off. Just saying that while he's been in position, the other part is actually making a play. To his credit, he's not panicking and drawing penalties, like Brents was doing.
