Unless Fells has another injury then I would think the Michael Hoomanawanui era will end once Shiancoe is ready to play.
He's on PUP too but from what I have read about his injury I would be very surprised if he plays this year. With the other options at TE for this season there's not as much need for him to play this year; they'd be better off making sure he's fully recovered rather than risk further injury.
wasnt it a torn acl? i think they claimed him knowing he wouldnt be available this year...but couldnt really pass up the opportunity.
it also makes sense from a contract perspective NOT to bring him back this year.
Would NOT count Ballard out for the late and post season run. It has been nearly 9 months since the ACL injury and with many players returning now from the same injury after only 6 months, chances of his return are quite likely. Both Welker and mankins returned in less than 6 months. Ballard haveing 9 or 10 months to heal and return is likely... I plan on seeing Gronk,AH,Shiancoe,and Ballard on the field at the same time before this season is over, with Ridley or Vereen in the back field.....This set run out of the no huddle hurry up will take the NFL by storm...
