Lineacker Ty Summers made the second-most tackles on the TCU defense last year. Now coach Gary Patterson wonders what he can do at defensive end, where the Horned Frogs can use some help.
Summers, a junior from San Antonio, recorded seven sacks in two practices at defensive end this week, Patterson said.
“Right now, he’s pushing for a starting spot at defensive end,” Patterson told reporters after practice Tuesday.
The Horned Frogs have linebackers to spare, apparently. Patterson said Alex Bush has also gotten work at defensive end, leaving junior Arico Evans to work with the first team alongside Travin Howard, the Big 12’s leading tackler a year ago.
