At 16, you're still growing. It's important to let his body fully develop and, as a result, he should not get overused. Blood him in the team by all means but it should be on an exception basis not a regular one. People use Owen and Fowler as examples as good enough old enough but they succumbed to career ruining injuries far too early in their career and I fully believe they were played too often at too young age and that significantly contributed to that
