The whole idea behind Caldwell's thinking is to not set up any premature expectations for Bortles. He's walking into a situation where they've created an environment where there is no added pressure for him to be the guy day 1. He can take his time to get acclimated to the speed of the game and work on improving his footwork and mechanics. If he goes out and performs in practice and in the classroom eventually it'll be evident that he's ready to play . But for now he's better off served on the bench, it certainly won't hurt him any.
