Your defensive guide to the Red-White Spring Game

The Red-White Spring Game returns Saturday following a one-year absence due to COVID-19.

Here's a quick guide to what to watch defensively.

Three veterans to watch:

1. Cam Taylor-Britt, junior cornerback: Well, he's arguably the team's best overall player. Plus, "He doesn't miss practices. He gets banged up, he jumps right back in. He's a leader on the field," secondary coach Travis Fisher says. Don't underestimate the importance of playing through pain. It's a critically important trait.

2. Damion Daniels, junior nose tackle: If any 3-4 alignment is going to flourish, it needs a quality nose tackle to create havoc.
