Seems he isn't getting reps today. Is it possible that the team is in discussion with another team about trading him? Why else hold him out completely ?
Question re Teddy B

i heard Grier is deciding which offer to take: a firm but wet handshake or a new mouse pad

Yes, let's ask a question literally noone here can answer but I'll give it a shot.
0.000000000001% chance we trade Teddy. I don't think some of you realize how important a backup QB with experience is. It doesn't always work out like with Jacoby, but if Tua goes out 2-3 games you don't want your season riding on a 7th round rookie regardless of how he looks in camp.

Then they better keep three QB's on the active roster because I don't see Skyler staying on the practice squad for long if he ends up on there. Some team will pick him up in a heartbeat. Plus Teddy only signed a one year deal so I doubt he will be on the team in 2023.
Tua looks amazing. Though, he is a walking Arthrex part catalog. Then you have Teddy whose entire leg went off like it had tripped a claymore with no player within 10 feet of him. I'd take all three into the 53.

And who would be the back up? As someone else mentioned brady didn't play either. Do you also think he is trade bait? Maybe brady for teddy?
Toiletwater sucks, he’s no better than Brissett.

I’m kind of inclined to want to keep both rn simply bc backup QB is so important until Tua can show he can remain healthy.
Yeah, Bridgewater hasn’t looked great. Yeah, Thompson is a 7th round rookie (that’s playing surprisingly well).
But if god forbid Tua missed a stretch of games again. I don’t want a Brissett situation. We could could let the two battle it out in that scenario.
Plus it’s very hard to trust Skyler w the job as of now, but the savings he’d provide over 3 years as a quality backup on a 7th rounder’s salary is worth more than whoever player 53 is.
We’ll see tho. If the last name coming up is someone like Trill, my opinion here might change.

Keep him through the cuts and PS him after - you can protect players on the PS that rule is still in place - up tp four I believe for this season.

I’d imagine they wanted to get Skylar more reps today because he’s going to get the majority of reps on Saturday. Don’t think it has anything to do with a potential trade, or any in house issues.

My guess is they know what Teddy can do and want to see Skylar.

If we do not take all 3 QBs into the season there is a strong chance we will need to sign someone off the streets to play QB considering the injury history of both Tua and Bridgewater....
