Well, the move wasn’t a surprise, but the subsequent activity caused a bit of a stir.

Robert Davis has been promoted to the active roster.

Many shared the thought that the available roster spot created by Alshon Jeffery’s move to the IR would be given to Marken Michel, co-author of, arguably, the most exciting offensive play of the preseason.
