I wouldn't be surprised if his Pectoral injury had a play in this strategy.
:ditto:
I could be wrong, but didn't he (or someone on the Hawks) come out and say that the injury would basically eliminate the deep ball and high velocity throws?
TBH if you're in first place in your division I think it's damn near impossible to trot out a rookie UDFA at QB unless you absolutely have to.
That said as his injuries pile up I have been getting increasingly concerned. I'm not even a Hawks fan, but just as someone who enjoys watching Wilson play I'd be lying if a doomsday RGIII 2014 scenario hadn't crossed my mind. Not a single person wants that, but the problem with playing injured is that it can and regularly does lead to more injuries (aggravation of the same injury, or new injuries from overcompensation, limited mobility, exposing body parts in efforts to protect injured ones, etc.). That's obviously not destined to happen, but it is something that can happen, which literally no decent person wants.
