Where has Mr. iloka been? Has he played yet? I thought he was supposed to help Zimmer create all of these exotic looks and make our defense even better?

Re: George Iloka
He's played some but needs to get more familiar with the defense. He said like 60-70% or something was similar but Zimmer isn't going to put him out there unless he knows what he's doing. Plus, Sendejo is probably better right now, to his credit.PurpleMustReign wrote: ↑Tue Sep 18, 2018 8:38 am Where has Mr. iloka been? Has he played yet?

Re: George Iloka
I think it was 85%. They seem to be giving his role to Kearse, who had a horrible missed tackle early in the game. I expect he eventually will get some looks later in the year.

Re: George Iloka
The fact that he hasn't seen much playing time yet isn't really surprising. With the exception of Hughes, everyone else in the Secondary has 3+ years of experience in this Defense with this group of personnel and coaches. Iloka, while having lots of past history with Zimmer just doesn't have the same time with this unit that even the backups have. If anything, the fact they haven't needed him out there is a testament to the depth we have in the secondary.
