I don't see it either Joe. Barring injury, VA will never start a game for the Lions this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgary had both Garcia and Flutie at one point. If both guys are mature and get along well, I don't see how it can't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reg Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Two players capable of starting is not too unusual. The Lions are fortunate to have both Adams and Rourke. It is a luxury they can afford for the remainder of this season. Assuming he is remains under contract VA will likely be traded in the off-season.
