big deal, practice suqad guys get no reps, basically he gets paid to workout in the weight room anytime he wants and stand on the sidelines with a track suit on. He doesn't dress for games, he gets to put on pads for practices, but he takes no reps or snaps. Practice roster is not going to help his development.
