He's just someone brought in so that when they make Bortles inactive later in the season to avoid him getting injured we'll have 2 QB's active. The move made now allows Nassib some time to learn the playbook.  

It was expected of them to bring someone in as they let go Allen and basically told everyone Henne can't play behind this offensive line.

Why, the front office has been wrong on many occasions. I don't trust this team's decision making 100 percent.

I'm not disputing the fact this front office has been often wrong. And if you don't trust them actually you shouldn't trust this move either, lol.

Just saying that if they thought he was a viable starter and an improvement over what we have they would have taken him earlier than they did.

Nassib was a 4th team QB at New Orleans, was cut and available and no NFL team has taken him despite the garbage QBs we see every sunday on the field (not just us but on other teams as well).
He's just not a saviour, he's filling Allen spot and if he'll start or be active is only because they decided to pull Blake and make him inactive to avoid injury and because Henne is a statue who was considered not able to play behind this offensive line.
Could he play better than Bortles? Hell maybe considering what level Bortles is playing at. Could he an hidden gem? I hope so!
But the way teams have considered him so far just shows he's a backup at best QB who's here for number games and insurance, nothing more than that.
