Trio of Owls fighting for starting safety spot across Jalen Young

Jalen Young has locked down one safety position for Florida Atlantic. The other one? That’s a different story.

Juniors Andrew Soroh and Ocie Rose, along with freshman Zyon Gilbert have been splitting reps with the first-team defense through the first two weeks of FAU preseason camp, displaying a revolving door at safety.

“Every day, you come out here, like coach Kiffin says, you got to pay your rent,” Soroh said. “Rent is due. Nobody has a starting job right now, so everybody’s competing at a high level and each and every day, we just remind each other that we’re going to be the best unit.
