2022 Outlook:

Offense: “We have 4 returning starters with game experience. We have talent in our QB, TB, and WR positions to not skip a beat. The sooner we can fill the three holes left up front, the faster we can come together as a unit. We are excited about the balance we will have in our offense and the diversity of skill sets that we have.”

Defense: “We have 6 returning starters! Our linebacking crew is all back, they are the leaders of the defense. Both safeties return, as well. Leaving us strong up the middle. Putting pressure on the QB and being strong in the run game is always our focus.”

Special Team: “Our kicking game is a concern for us this upcoming season. Our coverage in the kicking game will be important as we develop the consistency we need to have in the kicking game. We return our punter and we will need to take advantage of situations to flip the field.”
