Countdown to Kick: 3 Players ready to breakout in 2020

The season is nearly here, so let's dive into some big issues. Today -- three players who are ready to take the next step in 2020.

Anthony Fontana
The highly-rated homegrown has been on the fringes for the past two seasons, but his game has developed to the point where Jim Curtin feels comfortable putting him in multiple positions.

Fontana debuted at the No. 10 back in 2018, but his natural role is more of a box-to-box player. Curtin loves his ability to finish around the box, and has pushed Fontana to make quicker decisions in the center of the park to complete his game.
