But we were told that players loose there speed after an ACL. Oh wait so it's not true?

Generally speaking, yes. There are always exceptions.

If he can be a reliable pass catcher, he'll be a huge weapon for Kyle. Kyle won't be using him on special teams if he can develop those hands. This guy has serious speed, and I think some nice shake and bake, and if he can catch passes - he'll be another Jerick and worth 30+ million a year.

Special teams will be big in this next KC game.

No doubt!!!!
His fumble was a killer yesterday...team had a good drive going in the 1st Half to at least maybe get a FG to take the lead right back from the Cards. For the limited touches he's had at RB this year and last, he's fumbled at least two times - two times too many. I know he's a badass on ST, though.

I'm in complete agreement, he needs to hold onto the football, I can't bemoan his roster spot though, his Special teams value is practically enough on it's own and he can do the things asked of him in the run game.

He might be one fumble away from a re-evaluation though.
Good special teamer but I can't think of any other team he'd be having as many offensive snaps on as we give him.

Fumbled last year with a limited number of snaps. Fumbled this preseason with a limited number of snaps. Fumbled yesterday with a limited number of snaps. Whatever merits he may possess as a gunner he is just another guy as a RB. I would rather see them bring McNichols back or promote Wilson from the practice squad then see them give the ball to Mostert again.

This for sure.
Have we seen enough of this guy yet?

He is not an NFL caliber running back, and his special teams snaps can go to someone else.

He needs to go, wading a roster spot that a player with potential could have been placed in.

With Brittle Bredia the Cheatah and Alfred Slo-Mo Morris ahead of him it is certain he sees more playing time, and last Sunday we saw how useless he is a ball carrier
Kyle is confident Raheem will "bounce back" bounce back from what? He put the ball on the turf in preseason, he puts the ball on the turf in the regular season...not sure how long this bounce is supposed to take, or what he's expecting, but this kid should never carry the ball in the regular season.
Kyle letting this dude touch the ball is making me lose confidence in Kyle's decision making.
If Burbridge had been healthy, maybe he should've made the team over him..

He was the only other active RB besides Morris once Breida got hurt...s**t like this is why they're 1-4.

In no shape or form did kyle think before the season started that he'd be handing the ball to Mostert in week 5.
