2022 Offensive Outlook: “We are in the second year of the new offense and hope to have more consistency. We lost some outside playmakers but have a talented group of younger players eager to step up. If we can stay healthy up front I expect we will be successful.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “The back end of our defense has a lot of returning starters who will have to anchor a younger unit up front in the trenches. The success of our defense will depend on having solid tackling and eliminating big plays.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook: “We only return our kicker from last year but he is a four-year starter at that position.”
