It can be hard for interior defensive linemen to get recognition, as a lot of the time, their job is to plug the middle and let their teammates make plays. For former Kentucky and Auburn DL Justin Rogers, who’s primary job was to two-gap and eat up blockers in college, that was certainly the case. But for Rogers, it’s not about the glory and the numbers, as he knows if his teammates are making plays, he’s doing his job. In an interview at the East-West Shrine Bowl, Rogers talked about his play style, his transition to Auburn and some of his former teammates who he’s learning from.
