On defense, there were no real surprises. After the 1st team defense finished their brief exhibition, the backups picked up the bulk of the snaps. Cam Thomas is listed as DE, but he played nose as well. Thomas also subbed in and out with the 2nd and 3rd team. Loni Fangupo saw very limited time at NT, before Dan McCullers came in and saw the bulk of nose duty. With Troy out, Will Allen played opposite Mike Mitchell, and Sean Spence was starting opposite Lawrence Timmons with Ryan Shazier out.
