We won’t know for certain until tomorrow at about three o’clock, but from what we have heard leading into the Chiefs game, the plan seems to be to give third-year wide receiver Eli Rogers a helmet after he sat the past two weeks for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Working under the assumption that that is true, then, it would be hard exactly to fathom exactly what sort of role will be carved out for him upon his return. When you consider the fact that the wide receiver who replaced him on the active list, Justin Hunter, only saw a handful of snaps in each game and about four or five targets combined, it would be hard to envision much of a robust role.
