So him playing well there does not exactly mean he would have played well here either given both teams clearly had different priorities, needs and factors that went into their decisions.
Remember they have a better OL than us (7th vs 25th) and two if their “rejected” or “not good enough” Oline players signed with us. They also have a far superior rushing game.
My point being the decision and outcome is more nuanced than the talking heads make it to be.
I agree with you that the injury does not man he would have been hurt here.
