Expect Andre Roberts to be the first returner out there, on punts and kickoffs. But Trenton Cannon and Lucky Whitehead are very much in the mix for both jobs, as well. So who will look the steadiest in the preseason opener against the Falcons? Remember, Cannon is a rookie who didn't return punts in college, but has been solid so far through early training camp practices.
The Jets' starting outside linebackers figured to be Jordan Jenkins and Josh Martin. And they indeed got the work with the starters to begin training camp. But Jets coach Todd Bowles has tinkered a bit with his underachieving outside linebacker/edge rusher roles in recent days, working undrafted rookie Frankie Luvu and Brandon Copeland with the starters.
