Disclaimer, I am a Kyle Trask fan and want to see him play.
Kyle receives unfair hate because Tampa fans thought Tom Brady was going to play until he was 50 so they didn’t need a QB.
My concern is that Kyle has been written off by so many fans that they are invested in his failure.
I think some fans have hated on Kyle so long that they are afraid he could be good and they’d rather lose the season with Baker then be wrong.
I’m not familiar with other teams and their fans, but they seem eager to bring in the backup when the starter doesn’t meet expectations (Ex. Zach Wilson, Justin Fields, Daniel Jones, etc.)
I’d rather Kyle get traded for a 2nd/3rd round pick to a team thats eager to give a young, unproven QB play than a coach and fanbase that resents him for some reason.
My opinion is if Kyle was better, he would’ve played. Bowles knew his career was on the line and felt Baker is his best option to win
With that being said, practice is diff than the real game and Kyle could prove to be better but Bowles won’t risk it with his career in the line. He won’t ever get a HC job again
I know it’s not the same thing but that’s exactly how it happened at UF. Franks beat out Trask in 2019 before getting hurt @Kentucky, Trask comes in and is still the best QB UF has had since Tebow.
