He's basically refused to put him onthe field at all from what I have gathered. Seems that this was always destined to be a redshirt year. Marvin Jones his rookie season had about 6 targets at this point in the year. He finished his rookie season with 18 catches for 201 yards. Marvin just don't like young talent. And thinks special teams is more important than explosive plays... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The inability to utilize high picks as rookies is a serious disadvantage in today's NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xmad Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Meh to be fair his rookie season isn't any worse than Breshad Perrimans... or Kevin White's...or...I'm noticing a trend here. Recency bias I guess? He should be fine lewis rarely plays rookies anyway, though Tyler Boyd got plenty of playing time last year as a rookie and for some reason has gotten phased out of the offense himself... Huh. Wonder what the actual reasons are... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bananabucket Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Blame Marvin Lewis. We have no idea how good Ross is because he hasnt seen the freakin field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soko Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Kevin White? But that sucks, not that he saw much PT anyway. I was excited to see him play this year. EDIT: I have to laugh at “looks like a bust so far”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bzane Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 13 hours ago, theJ said: So let me get this straight. He practices fully every week. Never on the injury report. Then disappears on IR with the same shoulder injury that sidelined him during camp? What in the world is going on here? According to the attached, this was the opposite shoulder to the one previously injured: http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/21693858/john-ross-cincinnati-bengals-put-injured-reserve-shoulder-injury Ross missed practice with a shoulder injury on Wednesday, even though he had not been on the injury report and Bengals coach Marvin Lewis had said only hours before that he had a chance to play Sunday. Ross was placed on injured reserve shortly afterward. The injured shoulder was not the same one that Ross had surgery on prior to the draft, according to Bengals.com.

TheKillerNacho Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Honestly, he felt like a bust to me coming out. His rookie season has done nothing to convince me otherwise... but I hope he recovers and proves me wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think, Ravens fans regretted not trading up to get Kevin White instead of Breshard Perriman. And for as horrible as Perriman has been, at least we didn't waste any additional draft capital to acquire White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wackywabbit Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 John Ross just needs to stay healthy and he will be an incredible asset on the field. Not like Perriman who has been reasonably healthy this year, but also an absolute disaster on the field. Ross has hands, speed, and route running to give him a high floor as long as he can get/stay on the field. Perriman has speed. Not comparable, IMO.

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I hope he puts it together, because I was a big fan of his at UW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crickett Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Still voted for Charles Rogers. 6'2, 202, 4.4 40 flat, had the single season touchdown record, going to his hometown team. Consensus top five pick with the potential to be the next dominant perennial pro bowl receiver. He should have been what Julio is. John Ross was drafted ninth, but he widely considered a reach at that point. Dude was a 40 time, a medical report that could figuratively stretch 40 yards and not much else.
