Todd Bowles was asked about big-money free agent edge rusher Haason Reddick today at One Buc Palace.
The question (not from Joe) revolved around Reddick’s absence today at the opening spring OTA practice.
Other big name veterans were missing, such as Mike Evans, Lavonte David, Tristan Wirfs, Chris Godwin and Vita Vea. But they know their roles intimately while Reddick is a newcomer.
Bowles’ response felt sarcastic with a slight whiff of disappointment. “I’m sure one of these days we’ll see him,” Bowles said.
Joe can’t moan about a veteran missing a voluntary practice in May. Bowles did hint that some missing players are “nicked up” and for some, it’s not a lingering injury from last season.
Joe will pray Reddick is not among the wounded.
