Game is beginning to slow down for the 2nd year DE

The Patriots are deep at defensive end in 2016 with seven players vying for reps and playing time. One of them, 2nd-year player Geneo Grissom is looking to be as versatile as possible to not only stick on the 53-man roster but to find as many reps on the field as well.
