We’re months away from seeing roster battles play out, but I’ve got the itch, and there’s not much to talk about over the next few months. Let’s check in on some of the most-anticipated battles a little early.
FB: Luke McNitt vs. Daniel Marx
The biggest (and arguably only) competition for a true starting spot on the roster. McNitt and Marx are both strong blockers who thrived in college and will be asked to take on significant special teams roles if they do end up making the roster. Either one could prove to be an effective, long-term option at the fullback position, and I’ll be hoping hard that one of them proves to be good enough to win the job outright.
