From the episode

Not with Tanner McKee. Like I just can't get excited. More like bi-week spackle than actually someone I'm proactively starting... With most rookies, even first rounders are second half of the first season kind of guys. It's happening because of injuries.

STACKED’s take

NeutralRole

Lemon is bye-week depth, not a rest-of-season target with McKee.

Lemon is viewed as a bye-week fill-in rather than a proactive start for the rest of the season; while first-round rookies often break out in the second half of the season, Lemon's emergence has been driven by injuries to Devontae Smith and Tamion Wicks rather than organic role growth, and Tanner McKee's arrival at quarterback may not significantly help given Jalen Hurts' apparent lack of trust in him earlier in the season.
