Nichols and Kramdi are listed on the injury report.

Any word if Cam Allen or Michael Griffin will play again this season ?

That injury report is from Mondays practice, we won't get another one after their next practice.

I don't expect to see Cam Allen. He seems to have had surgery at some point.

Who knows on Griffin.

Here are some questions:

- Can Kelly play HB as well as safety, since he was listed at HB on an old depth chart ?
- Is there much difference playing RHB versus LHB ?
- If not, could we switch Kelly to LHB, Williams to LCB, and let Vaval be the LCB backup ?

If Vaval is the LCB backup, there is probably less chance he gets injured, since he's our only decent PR/KR.

Kelly can barely play safety, he'd get killed at HB.

Hazen had a full-speed collision on ST early on and looked shaken and hobbled off.  Not sure yet if he came back.  Of course, him being out wouldn't be the end of the world.

It's not really a left vs right anymore.  You have your boundary/weakside/shortside and field/strongside/wideside.

Nichols is our best DB.

Nichols is our best DB.

In 2023. Holm has easily been our best defender over the past two seasons and it's not particularly close. You could see the decline in Nichols game last year and the bottom fell out this year.
