Rookie Placement
No rookies are listed with the first team on either side of the ball. Edge David Bailey<\/a>, who has been a pass rushing demon early in camp and tweaked his ankle Saturday, was placed behind Kingsley Enagbare<\/a>. A free agent addition, Enagbare returned to action in the scrimmage after missing a couple of practices with an ankle ailment. TE Kenyon Sadiq<\/a>, who is not practicing after having a setback following offseason hernia surgery, is listed as a backup to Mason Taylor<\/a> on a first team that lists two tight ends. WR Omar Cooper Jr.<\/a> is slotted behind Garrett Wilson<\/a> although the release depth chart only accounts for two wideouts and thus takes 11 personnel (1 RB, 1 TE) out of the equation. Fourth-round pick Darrell Jackson Jr.<\/a>, who registered a sack in Saturday’s scrimmage, is penciled in as David Onyemata<\/a>‘s backup.<\/p>\n

Bailey briefly went down after he got by LT Olu Fashanu<\/a> and lost his balance while pressuring Geno Smith<\/a>. He delivered a thumbs up after a quick evaluation from trainers and HC Aaron Glenn said he’ll be “fine” after the injury scare.<\/p>\n

“I feel like there are guys that are just naturally meant to be edge rushers, and he’s one of those guys,” Fashanu said of Bailey. “His rush angles are a lot different than what I’ve gone against and I feel like, right now, he’s still learning a lot. But you can tell he’s going to be a really good player from day one.<\/p>\n

QB 2
Fourth-round pick Cade Klubnik<\/a>, who had a TD pass Saturday to Jelani Woods<\/a> and was also intercepted by S Dane Belton, is listed as Geno Smith’s primary backup. Bailey Zappe<\/a> and Brady Cook<\/a> are given equal billing on the No. 3 line. Klubnik converted a third-and-21 play late in the scrimmage, delivering a perfect long ball to WR Isaiah Williams that covered 66 yards in all.<\/p>\n

“We’re just in the second week, you know, we haven’t even played a preseason game yet,” Glenn said Saturday. “I still look at it like that; those guys are still competing. They’re going to get a lot of plays in the preseason, and we’ll see how it goes from there. But it’s exactly what it is, it’s a competition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rookie PlacementNo rookies are listed with the first team on either side of the ball.
