That might be true...but I think he'll be inactive tomorrow with rain and wind for sure...Could be wrong of course...BUT..I do agree that I would LOVE to see a break out game for him..they need it.

I hope Galloway is active tomorrow. 4 weeks of being inactive is pointless, if that's the case then just cut him. If this guy needs half the season to learn his **** then F it.

If he continues to be inactive tomorrow, then that is a clear indication they will cut him and I believe only so when Tate comes off PUP or after the trade deadline in which case he must then be claimed off waivers and so will most likely go to a team not in contention (by order of priority), if I understand that correctly.

I think Galloway will be active tomorrow. Tennessee is minus their two starting cornerbacks. This could be a day for Galloway to build his confidence.

Im not sure i understand where this whole "when Tate comes back" thing comes from. I see alot of people posting this. Has he even practiced with the team? Its my understanding that he was drafted, and pup'd, and has not practiced. If thats the case, why are so many people thinking that he'll come back and replace Galloway? This kid is a rookie coming off a knee injury. He probably wont be contributing to the passing game for awhile. Returns maybe, but i doubt in the passing game.

I tend to agree....he has never practiced...his knee was operated on..he is recovering since then...I don't know how much he has absorbed so far...the play book etc..Maybe returns but I agree passng takes a lot of time drilsl etc..and that is not at all possible..HE could go from NFI to PUP which would give him more time..that is possible...or he could go straight to the 53 or IR...but those are also possibilities after he is PUPed...I think it will depend on many things..
As for Galloways possible inactive status...I just think with wind..rain..they may NOT need a 5th receiver...I agree I would love to see him active and get reps..on a good day weather wise absolutely!!! But in a game in the rain..that might not be as easy...I would say IF he's inactive it would be his 3rd game NOT 4th....and next week definitely active...

Agreed. My assumption is that they'll go with 4 wr, 3 TEs and 4 RBs.

Agree on Tate. At best he will play special teams.

I miss Joey Galloway.

This is my best bet. Galloway is done, but they don't want him to land on a good team.

Maybe he plays one last time and they try to ship him off for a draft pick... or maybe BB is decisive and has had enough and is just making sure he doesn't lose 3 WRs in a given week before cutting him...
