We lost Jarron Jones, a starting DL
to a knee injury. (As opposed to Alize Jones, a freshman tight end)
Jarron's backups are:
-Daniel Cage, a sophomore who looked OK in limited time his freshman year and was repeatedly described by Mike Mayock as being "a dude, not a guy" (whatever that means)
-Jerry Tillery, a true freshman who is apparently an athletic freak but is, you know, a true freshman
-Several other young players who may or may not be ready to step in if needed. One of them, Jacob Matuska, is most notable at this point is his career for not being on the spotter's depth chart against you guys last year, so the announcers had no idea who he was when came into the game (which I think sums up the absurd number of injuries we suffered on defense last year).
