Is it? I don’t recall a single post referencing Shivers as the primary pass catching RB, or even an option as a pass catching RB. The general consensus has been that Joiner and MAR are most people best guesses as to who will be the wheel route/pass catching type guys.

I haven't seen consensus either.
With Shivers, with his speed, I think there is opportunity to take one to the house if gets the ball in open space.
But 2 issues have kept him from doing it.
1. The plays Gus calls that are 'screens' are not very well schemed or disguised very well.
2. Shivers is not a shifty style of back. Somewhat stiff, and he doesn't have great elusiveness.
Now if they have better screen plays with Morris designing them, and Shivers gets a lot more practice and comfortable catching screens, then it may become a very successful play.
We will see for sure early in the season.
