himself because he is protective in that regard, which is at least honorable, rather than throwing them under the bus. In this case he had a legitimate reason to pull him because Riley wasn't the same after that first drive. In Riley's case he should have reported being banged up after that first drive and Marcus could have helped him reach that conclusion. Inserting Angeli for a series or two would have been a possible solution to the poor offense say two drives after the first drive. It would have given Riley a chance to get healthy as he was clearly hurt and get back to the game plan as he recovered more.
