Shelve the guy, let Felton get some run at receiver, and live to fight another day. Zero reason to risk the franchise player playing in meaningless, end of season games.

I believe it is important to Jefferson. Wasn't there a big drama event with the previous coach not getting him his yards? Jefferson is a competitor. You don't sit everyone and build good will for next year by sitting healthy people just short of milestones.

Thats fine, but the alternative possibility is what I laid out and the way this season has gone, I certainly wouldn't tempt fate in a meaningless game. Jefferson needs to see the big picture and while he may be a competitor and want to play, that decision should be taken out of his hands

You take that out of his hands you go from a guy that is a good supportive teammate, to a disgruntled employee in a flash. He's got fame, he's got money. He's got records, but he still wants to have a say in his life and imo its his decision. He's playing for pride and we dont want him to lose that.

So do we care about any of that stuff if he blows his knee out? I certainly don't. Everything at this point is building towards next year and Jefferson should understand his significance in that and put aside meaningless personal accomplishments in a meaningless season

Hes just been given a front row seat to how fragile their careers are, he loves the game, you cam see it in how he reacts to others success around him, its genuine, he's not doing it for some benchmark. He knows his time is limited and doesnt want to waste any time IMO, regardless of the risk.

Chiefs doing it right. Shut down Rashee Rice, Thornton, and both starting corners for the season. But boy, I sure hope Jefferson gets his 1,000 yards
