I beg to differ! Arnaiz battle led one year with 4 TDs, Brandon Lloyd led us two years with 5 and 4 TDs, few years ago George Celek led our receiving core with 4 TDs. Vernon Davis has two good years double digit scoring, but he scored most of his TDs on long gains, and Michael Crabtree had couple good years with 6-7TD grabs.

Yet besides Anquan, no one put fear on the other teams defense when it mattered! I am just hoping Reed would be our end zone specialist because he has the body/ skill to do this !!!

ah the glory years

I am afraid so too, apparently he is no longer on practice field. Either after Hurd they got scared and moved him inside, or he is deciding to move on.

He moves so well for a TE. He's running WR routes out of the slot and plays more like a big WR than he is a TE. Kyle in 2013 often aligned him detached from the line as if he was a big slot WR.

huh? Dude hasn't played football in over a yr. I mean it's like 100 degrees the pass couple days. Let him go inside and work on a treadmill or some s**t.

Somehow i like George in the EZ. Great hands, contests for ball well, and gets open.

I'll put it this way. With George in EZ, he better have a double or he will catch whatever is in reasonable range.

Why is it taking so long for this guy to get a practice in ? I'm starting to worry he might not make the roster at this point.

Bruh have you not seen this guys injury history? If he sneezes to hard he'll get a concussion.

This guy needs to get back on the field. We'll be running a lot 13 personnel against the Cards if this keeps up.

I´m starting to get worried about his absence because now he has been absent the fist 2 blocks of practice and if someone tells me that he isn´t practicing because he gets concussed all the time........well......in that case how the hell is he going to play then.

Yeah, but Jimmie Ward is out there. How's Reed going to play without actual practice ? Is he a roster stash ? Just too many questions.

I'm sure he's made enough money, advice the guy to retire before something bad happens.. it's not like he's going to help this team BIG TIME.. it ain't WORTH IT !!!

Agree. Specially if he's older and also has all those brain injuries. By 50, he could have some severe permanent nerve or neurological symptoms that might make him go the way of Junion Say-oww. Junior was an all pro, but ended up taking own his life and CTE was supposedly a major factor in his death.

T-minus two months before Reed gets hurts, goes on the IR, and then people start saying, "wow, another player on the IR, we are so unlucky!"
