You may recognize Terrance for his work on special teams this year, with occasional defensive appearances.
Terrance appeared in 15 games this year, and made 1 start on defense. He recorded 5 tackles and 1 assist, had 2 passes defensed, and made one ricochet interception for 7 yards. [Reply]
Every year, we have some linebacker who's really strong on special teams, and I wonder why he can't crack the starting lineup. Then that linebacker eventually gets cut and I wonder how the rest of his life goes.
Terrance is kind of the 2017 version of that, but not quite as strong. I view him as similar to Ramik, in that he moves well, but he's probably too light to be a starting linebacker.
With Terrance, I kind of figure that he'll be a special teams linebacker for us, and then someday he won't. I'm fine keeping him on the team until that day comes. [Reply]

He's one that I always figured was a special teamer due to size, though.
Some of the guys that I liked were more ILBs who hit like trucks - DJ Alexander and Cory Greenwood and William Kershaw. What happens to those guys when they finish their 2-3 year run destroying people on special teams? [Reply]
Terrance on average was a bit disappointing to people, and they want to see a smaller role for him going forward. But that's not atypical of our less visible backups.
He's seen as having reasonable trade value, though.
