Safeties

  • Reshad Jones
  • Minkah Fitzpatrick
  • TJ McDonald
  • Walt Aikens

Minkah Fitzpatrick is a talented, versatile safety who will hopefully be utilized better under new defensive Head Coach Brian Flores. Jones and McDonald are both physical and hard-hitting while offering a veteran presence on the backend of the defense. Aikens is a key Special Teamer who also provides decent depth.

Player to watch: Maurice Smith
