I'd be tempted to keep his ass in bubblewrap until the playoffs. IMO overall health is more important for us this year than seeding, seeing as how it's unlikely we can catch Green Bay in the remaining 3 games. But then again what if they drop a couple. It's a hard call.

I agree but should his first snaps be in the playoffs? Maybe 5-10 against the Ravens and 9ers to warm him up.

If they activated him I think we may see him get 5 or more carries in the next couple games to see what he has. I doubt they give him, first live action back in a playoff game. Unless they are just extremely impressed with him at practice.

Worth bookmarking a roster spot. Even if he’s ready I wouldn’t give him snaps, and then limited, for the whiners game as a quick tune up for the playoffs.

I also agree with many of you that Cam will be eased in. I can't see him getting more than 5-10 carries at most. I would guess maybe next week at the earliest is when he may play. I did have to restrain myself from picking him up in fantasy football tho since championship round is next week lol

Unbelievable, as much as all indictors and all the teaser updates suggested he was progressing ahead of schedule this is remarkable.
He is such a complete back with the ability to take on both SM & DH responsibilities in the Run, Pass and Protection Packages.
BRAVO Cam!

5 months removed from an achilles tear makes me uneasy honestly. This guy is barely 22 years old and is our future and long term solution at RB. I get the urgency this year to win, but man I would be so devastated if he got hurt again, or rushing back lead him to get some other sort of lower body injury. Sony is running like a beast right now, and we have Henderson back healthy, and didn't we just activate Jake Funk too??

I get Cam is a freak athlete and technology now days is incredible with training and recovery plans. And if he truly is healed then I'm ecstatic he's back so soon for sure. But I just cant ever in my life remember an athlete returning from an Achilles tear in 5 months. Never seen it in football or basketball. Especially at a position which requires you to be explosive on every play like RB, WR, or CB.

This means they have 3 weeks to put him on the roster, right?
