That would be such a luxury if he was hiding on our roster the whole time. Maybe I shouldn't hold my breath.

Nelson's back and other surgeries are more plausible to me than other suggestions I've heard. Whatever it is, if you remember when he came in in 2018, he made Kelly, Castonzo, and the ultimately the whole line better by nature of the unit. When one guy does worse, the next guy does worse, and so on.
Also, not to excuse the OL at all... but if you watched the JT O'Sullivan breakdown on Ehlinger, he pointed out some RPO runs. Pittman, Granson, Woods, etc. were getting beat on several blocking assignments. They're more dynamic as receivers, but that's an underrated element we used to get from guys like Doyle and Pascal that hurts our run game and quick passing game.
