Weird highlights, he's playing receiver (could be TE), LB and DE.

I can see Parker at safety.

The defence lines up in so many different ways, I'm not paying too much attention to "starters". But we definitely leaned more into a coverage heavy style last season, and Parker as a ballhawk in the back field as opposed to a guy who plays closer to the line makes sense to me.

Parker and Holm are the 2 fastest of the returning DB's, both are good solo tacklers, Holm is too valuable to move away from HB as he helps initiate new corners.

Yes sloppy many times, compounded with our lack of any control in the middle of the ice and voila —- no cigars today

DB's Gauden and Davis and OL Garcia all suspended. I suppose that means they did not report?

DB Kelly to 6 game IR.

Losing Kelly unfortunate but opens up a spot for another player?

Likely solidifies Hallet's spot, and now Haggerty. The odd play at safety, but mostly Teams.

Sloppy D-zone play, and our bread and butter all season the PP was terrible.

Interesting spot for Parker. They likely know what he can do at field corner. He's not the typical body type you want as a safety though so we'll see how much of a look he gets there I guess. 

Tua starting at guard is the typical O'Shea loyalty play. We'll see how long that lasts too.

Not at all what I expected, lol.

Means nothing other than he's first in line to get reps.

Interesting, effectively moving to 6 DB's in the backfield.  Wondering if they will play different SAM and FS  on running vs. passing downs.

Eli at LG is surprising, will be interesting to see how that develops though camp.
