When you're past the trade deadline and in the middle of the season and get thin at a position you have to scrape the bottom of the barrel. There are always guys who didn't make the rosters the previous preseason around the league, guys on other teams practice squad, guys who are recently retired or just hanging around for an opportunity like this. You don't have a lot of choices. But given the circumstances you do the best you can. You can't expect March free agency level signings in November, there's a reason guys aren't employed and available.

But he was still good for 3 or 4 good plays a game. Kind of what I expect from these latest signings. You mean a few decades? Lmao Levens was on the 04 team but to your point he was clutch for us
November 17, 20222 yr How bad of a person am I to picture him stomping a Cowboys player in the head? 🤣😩🤷🏻♂️

November 17, 20222 yr Name a team that has a better Defensive interior in the NFL, the depth is unreal. No excuses for DC JG way too much talent on Defense not to be shutting teams out!

What else are they supposed to do in the middle of the season? It's not like they can draft someone right now and they probably don't want to trade a good player or draft pick just to hold it down until Davis comes back.

Exactly I mean I think this is the best they can do at this point....can't draft or trade for anybody in mid-November. I honestly hope we go DE and DT with our two first round picks next year, since a few of the 30+ guys will likely be gone.

Probably waiting for the right offer to fall into his lap. I read somewhere that he’s never missed a start due to injury, period, in 12 years. That’s insane for a physical D tackle like him.

November 18, 20222 yr nice... need the big bodies for the next few weeks for sure. we have some damn good RBs to play the next 3 weeks.

With Fields finding his legs. Pretty much the rest of the teams are all run 1st teams. Gannon has many weeks to figure this out. I find it crazy that 1 person gone could affect the run D. And a rookie too. So we brought in 2 pro bowlers to help fill that void. Good sign I guess. Jonathan Taylor Aaron jones Derick Henry Saquan Barkley Justin fields Pollard and Zeke Kamara Saquan Barkley.

Only games he missed were for suspension. He’s had 6 sacks in each of the last two seasons. Pretty impressive for a mid-30s defensive tackle.
