Notes: Joel Filani, Trent Shelton, Bryan Gilmore and Joe Newton dressed but did not play. Michael Bumpus’ two plays came after Courtney Taylor briefly left the field with an arm injury.
In the Slot
With Bobby Engram out for the first month or so of the regular season, I've been looking who has been lining up in the slot this preseason. This data may shed some light on which player will fill that role in 3-wide sets in his absence.
