ROSTER BATTLES TO WATCH

OFFENSE

WR: Lil'Jordan Humphrey vs. Tre Nixon — Humphrey likely has a roster spot locked up but want to finish strong.

TE: Devin Asiasi vs. Matt Sokol — Could another 2020 draft pick be cut?

OT: Justin Herron vs. Yodny Cajuste — Could one be expendable? Expect Herron to get a long look after missing last week.

OG/depth: Arlington Hambright, Will Sherman, Chasen Hines, Yasir Durant and Drew Desjarlais.

Sherman charging strong. Hines has popped at times. Hambright seems to have a spot locked up. Durant has experience. How does it shake out?

DEFENSE

DE: Henry Anderson vs. Sam Roberts

Experience or upside?

LBs: Mack Wilson, Jahlani Tavai, Cam McGrone, Harvey Langhi

How does the depth shake out?

CBs: Terrance Mitchell vs. Jack Jones. vs, Shaun Wade

Is the rookie good enough right now or does he need the Foxboro Flu?
