GIACOMETTI: Sean Davis ready to step in for suspended Felipe

HANOVER, N.J. – Vacancies have begun to crop up throughout their lineup, but the New York Red Bulls don’t necessarily see it as a negative.

Of course, it’s never easy to watch teammates go down with injury or suspension, but the spots left behind have presented opportunities for other players on the periphery.

Enter Sean Davis, a 23-year-old with tons of upside and promise. But, for as talented as the midfielder has proven to be, Davis has had his struggles breaking into a Red Bulls midfield that has been notoriously solid. That issue is compounded even further when looking at the midfield trio he is contending with - as Felipe, Dax McCarty, and Sacha Kljestan are not just amongst the more talented players in the league, they rarely miss a start.
