Like I said, you can't expect anything positive out of Henne anyway, so I expect whenever they bring in a new OC he'll tell Dave and Gus who he feels comfortable with as his backup QB. I wouldn't be surprised to see Henne released this off season. He just has an awfully big salary for a guy who doesn't really bring any benefit other than, "good locker room guy."

I said Henne isn't the answer, but WHO is a better option? If Bortles gets injured and out for weeks/season, you no longer need your backup to be a backup, your backup is now the starter...Now who is a better option that is or will be available? the backup is only one play away from becoming the starter...you don't just get rid of players for the sake of getting them gone...If there is no better option for a backup qb, then you keep him
