    Just means he was in VM's tracing. He must test positive the rest of the week. I think he'll play.

    As of now, I believe, it’s just precautionary.

    He probably wouldn’t have practiced much anyway.

    if anyone would get it on the team why can't it be Randy Fichtner ...then we could play on offense in both halves of the game
    Kenny Pickett is who I though he was .. Eagles didn't value him either , now he is a Stain at the Mistake by the Lake 3 teams in 4 years more of a shooting star than a superstar

    Rudolph sucked before that.
    That hit just iced it.
    I saw nothing from him in either preseason to give me hope as a fan.
    Whereas when you watched Ben in his rookie preseason you could tell it was only a matter of time.

    The sad thing is when Ben does retire it's probably going to be bleek for a long while before the 'next' Ben/Terry comes along.

    I dunno... I don’t want Ben to have ‘Rona, for he is in proximity of the whole offense and our backups are trash.

    Would be the kick in the nuts to a great season that pretty much has been a dream...

    Like the almighty above is a Ravens fan...

    Dobbs 100%. At least he provides mobility. Idk who has the stronger arm between the 2 when they are stepping into passes, but Rudolph always seems to be on his heels, so he's not getting the velocity he's capable of because he's scared of getting hit. Dobbs at the very least can create some offense with his legs. With all that being said, I think Ben plays this weekend.

    After Dobbs Raiders relief effort and his total inability to impact a Jags depth chart featuring Minshew and whatever other trash and Rudolph's entire everything -- the choice is basically poop and poop light. No one really wants to see either guy play.

    I think you’re right. Rudolph had a little success and I mean a little at the beginning. Since then garbage with zero mobility. As much as I don’t want to give up on him, a QB either has it or doesn’t. How many QBs can you think of who’ve struggled initially and became a solid starter. I have doubts with Darnold now ,although a better team would be nice before labeled a bust. Dak is in second tier of QB’s IMO but even he came in from get go and succeeded. Maybe Favre, if I recall he struggled early, but had all the tools. Mason not so much.

    Rudolph looked like a guy last season who was going to be decent. If not limited. He outplayed Dobbs and won the backup role. He did pretty decent in his first few starts until the Thomas hit happened. What was once a limited dude as is looked even worse. Not helped at all by Fichtner's playcalling. We've seen first hand what Fichtner does to the Offense until Ben takes the controls from him this season. Randy continues to prove that he is nothing more than a figurehead who is out of his element in the NFL.

    The main problem is Mason is that his field confidence has hit rock bottom. And he doesn't have the raw skillset and talent to cover it. I was rooting for him bigly, but the dude just sucks.
