2024 Offensive Outlook: We have 4 OL with starting experience returning, which will be key to us being successful. We have a new starting QB and new RB. Our WR have the potential to be explosive.

2024 Defensive Outlook: Our defense needs to improve for us to be successful. We need to get off the field in crucial 3rd and 4th down situations. Creating turnovers and minimizing long drives are key.

2024 Special Teams Outlook: Our kicking game should be more consistent with our returning kicker. We need to replace our punter.
