On Tuesday, following head coach Manny Diaz, defensive tackles Nesta Jade Silvera and Jon Ford spoke to the media.
Silvera, a junior, enters 2020 with high expectations, but hasn’t taken it for granted.
“I’ve got to come to work every day. I’ve got young guys pushing me. I’ve got to come to work every day,” said Silvera.
Silvera suffered an injury during fall camp last year, and returned mid-way through the 2019 season. He finished with 19 tackles, 1 sack and 1 TFL.
Several Canes are starting to develop like we thought they would, like Nesta Silvera.
