Interesting. According to Meyer, the reason Tim was cut was because a backup tight end needs to be able to contribute on special teams, and he couldn't tackle:
"Two of the special teams phases are tackling and if you've never tackled [it's not easy to do]," Meyer said. "Every off day we'll have a two to three hour meeting about roster management. We expect to be very good in special teams. Tight end position is one of those, and tailback -- if he can't contribute on special teams that's a tough go."
