His antics have been a bit strange since he suffered that injury. I do wonder if he'd be willing to accept a secondary role as theres no way you make Larry Johnson into a backup player. The current duo of Johnson and Bennet is fine by me and each guy is playing their role well. But if Priest was willing to accept that he's no longer the go to guy and still has something he'd make a hell of a third down back because he is a good pass catcher and blocker. Still 33 year old running backs don't generally do very well in the NFL. Although Holmes doesn't have quite as much mileage on him as a lot of other backs his age.

Part of me does think it's time to move on, but another part of me doesn't want to see him run in 3 TD's against the team wearing Silver and Black leading the Raiders to a win over the Chiefs.
