The last week or so, we’ve been going over the different offensive position groups. Today, we start on the defense with the defensive ends! Throughout this article, I will be separating the defensive ends into base ends (which is what you would normally think of as a strongside end; typically the guys that aren’t putting up big sack numbers) and edge players (your big pass rushers at defensive end that will hopefully put up big sack numbers).
Who’s Gone?
Unlike when I did Tight Ends last week, we actually have some pretty notable players that are not returning to the team this season.
