Notable roster cuts:
Aaron Green, Running back – This is only going to get tougher as the preseason moves along. Green has already looked like a back worth keeping.
Brian Quick, Wide receiver – Still don’t see him making the roster. The emergence of guys like Nelson Spruce and hopefully Duke Williams will be too much for Quick to overcome.
Mike Thomas, Wide receiver – Thomas had a couple of drops week one or the preseason and as of right now Nelson Spruce poured on some pressure for the 6th round pick out of Southern Miss. We will see if Thomas can bounce back, if not he could be looking at practice squad stint at best.
Brian Randolph, Safety – Unfortunately due to his season ending injury Randolph falls out of our 53-man roster. He will be back next year…
Isaiah Battle, Offensive tackle – I had Darrell Williams here last week but he looked solid in-game and Battle didn’t play. To make matters worse Battle ended up being carted off this week and at this point we won’t know what to make of it. Bottom line is Battle does not have a guaranteed roster spot.
Andrew Donnal, Offensive tackle – Nothing has changed from last week. I think the versatility with Rodger Saffold being able to play right tackle if need be could make Donnal expendable. Isaiah Battle is not going anywhere and unfortunately Donnal becomes the odd man out.
Josh Forrest, Linebacker – It’s him or Bryce Hager… I am picking Hager now even though I had Forrest last week. Hager led the team in tackles on Saturday and really looked sharp.
Potential 10-man practice squad:
RB Aaron Green – TCU
FB Zach Laskey – Georgia Tech
WR Mike Thomas – Southern Mississippi
WR Marquez North – Tennessee
TE Benson Browne – NC State
OT Andrew Donnal – Iowa
DL Zach Colvin – Bowling Green
DL Morgan Fox – Colorado State-Pueblo
DE Ian Seau – Nevada
S Jabriel Washington – Alabama
