i can't say i know the specifics but it almost feels like a power struggle where maybe he was a cap casualty then kyle appealed to jed to get him back. we go backwards by bringing him back, i was hoping for new concepts on O and a younger fresher team. this is a mid 30s FB who was at his best 2019 to 2021 era. no FB would have kyle with a bit of a new look offense and 2 TE.
From what I've seen, he was given an offer when they asked him to take a pay cut, he was never a guy they didn't want back, they told him the offer was on the table after his release, 5 days later, he had visited Pittsburgh, chose to come back to us, I doubt Kyle asked Jed to bring him back, it was up to Lynch more so than Jed or Kyle, whatever you want to say about Juice, he is worth it, his blocking, with TW, & Kittle made that 2023 run game so dangerous, when CMC was in every game he was getting giant holes because of Juice, TW, & Kittle, the issues we had at the goal line IMO are on the IOL, namely Brendel.
