Troy coach Neal Brown looking for newcomers to step up again in scrimmage

“Which of these new guys are going to step up?” he asked after Thursday’s practice. “Whether it’s a true freshman or a transfer, which one is going to stand up in a game-like setting and show they are ready to play?”

During the first scrimmage, true freshman wide receiver Sam Letton had the day’s first touchdown when he took a quick slant from Sawyer Smith 21 yards for a score. Letton added a couple of other clutch passes in third-down situations.

Meanwhile, running back Jabir Frye had two long touchdown runs – one coming off a speed sweep out of the wide receiver position.
