Yesterday, Andrew talked about the cornerbacks going into the fall. Today we’re gonna look at their secondary cousins, the safeties.
That’s all for intros, because intros are the worst.
To the safeties!
Key Losses
Earlier in the week I published the fall preview for outside linebackers and concluded in this section that the answer was simply, “Not much.” That remains true at safeties.
The only answer here is Myles Bryant, who was primarily at safety in 2019 after being a nickel prior. Otherwise, no one.
That being said, he didn’t line up there exclusively and, especially near the end of the year, there were a decent amount of snaps where he wasn’t lined up at safety at all as Asa Turner and others grew into the role.
