Quotes: Safeties Coach David Merritt on the safety position: “Honestly, when I look at it right now, I see four starters. Don’t rule out the other two rookies that we have. Nehemiah Warrick, I can’t wait to see this kid in pads, because that’s what he is known for, for being an aggressive type tackler. To see this kid in pads, I look forward to that. Terrance Stringer, kid our of Tuskegee, I tease him all the time about Frank Walker, but the thing is that the kid is smart, this kid showed range, so I’m looking forward to see him in pads as well. I feel very good with our first four and hopefully these last two rookies can push up and maybe take a job.”
