If need be, they'll scoop someone up from the practice squad or the street.
The Pringle fascination really should go down in CP Lore alongside that shitty RB during the Marty era. This guy was the heir apparent to Sammy Watkins. We had people actually citing him in threads suggesting we trade Tyreek Hill for a CB because "We have WR depth!!!"
No, this means nothing regarding Hill. His presence/absence does nothing to make Byron Pringle an NFL caliber player.
Bobby Sippio was really high on Pringle. And crack cocaine. [Reply]
Unrelated to OP, but since we are talking specials teams, can we please stop having Hill return punts?!?? Especially since he’s gotten injured already. I don’t think the slight possibility of him returning a kick is worth our star player getting hurt returning punts [Reply]
We're clearly making room for Antonio Brown. A "Kansas City-based football social media consultant" is coaching him now on how to get away from the Patriots. [Reply]

I imagine they are only keeping Tremon as he is emergency CB depth, because he was the obvious cut. Guess he gets to stay until Claibourne suspension ends. [Reply]

I think DAT is going to be the 'Special Teams ace."
He's a decent returner and can gun on punt coverage, so...there's that. [Reply]

Also Byron Pringle isn't even young, he's the same age Sammy Watkins is.
Wow. Was he held back in 3rd grade or something? [Reply]
