Doesn't sound like this will happen, but what if they decide that Sherrod could be ready to play in a couple weeks, so they want to keep him on the roster just in case. Let's assume they have no new injuries this weekend. Who should they release to make room for him on the roster?
If Matthews is OK to go next week, So'Oto or another linebacker might be an option. But if he isn't?
Maybe one of the TEs?
White? That would leave just Green, Starks and Kuhn.
Boykin? Richardson? Driver?
I might let White go, expecting Benson back in a couple weeks. But then what? How do you make room for him?
It would be a sad day, but the logical one might be Driver. He made no impact when Jennings and Nelson were out. I can't imagine them bringing him back next year anyway. He doesn't play ST except on the "hands" team, so in the here and now he wouldn't be missed on gameday.
