This is the problem with looking for instant gratification from draft picks. Yeah, he's being worked in slowly. So what? Anybody who read anything about him before or after the draft should have expected that. And it's not all about him: this is a franchise and coaching staff that always plays veterans over rookies. The few guys that do see the field that early are the exceptions that prove the rule.
I think it's encouraging that his snaps are increasing and like many of you I really look forward to the day when we never have to see Ben Neimann on the field again. But it's gonna take time. |

Yep. And Spags puts special pressure on playing LB's too. It's a tough position to play, especially for this team.

Good grief people. He's a second round pick who didn't get that much time to play in college.
My hope for him is that he could take over a starting LB spot this year, but let's give him some time to develop. |

It’s very exciting to think about this defense when he gets up to speed and Spags weaponizes him. |

He’s going to be a beast by the end of the season.

I wasn't one of the people saying Gay was going to need time. I'm very thankful for the smart posters who knew this and repeated it, because it allowed me to not worry when he wasn't starting.
Great call, guys. |

The 2nd video is the really important one.
In the first video, it appears they are in nickel and he's playing the Buck, which is what we heard all offseason. In the second video, he's on the WEAK SIDE. Notice that #54 is on the field at the same time. He's taking snaps directly from Niemann, which is huge. |

EDIT: He was on the field but the run was actually to the strong side, so it was Wilson that got sealed out on the play side. Gay was on the back side of the play (and double-teamed). |
