2022 Outlook: “From a year ago, we have lost some key players that were very productive for us offensively. We placed great emphasis on evaluating personnel and are confident of the direction we are going offensively. Defensively we return many veteran players and players with game experience. Special teams’ strength will be with our kicker. As a team, we have a large roster where we continue to develop players. In the past, we had many one-way players. With some talented players it is hard not to play them offensively, defensively, and within our special teams. Having a very competitive schedule we will all need to focus daily and weekly on our opponents.”
