On roster: Matthew Stafford, Jake Rudock, Brad Kaaya
Key loss: Dan Orlovsky
Making cut: Stafford
On bubble: Rudock, Kaaya
Best competition: Who becomes Stafford’s backup this season?
Rudock and Kaaya will battle it out during training camp and the preseason for the role.
Rudock has the advantage right now heading into his second season. He knows the scheme and has adjusted to the pace of the game at the NFL level. He’s calm, cool, collected and that showed during OTAs and the minicamp.
