Turk moved ahead of Boone at DE
I have been one of those people that wasn’t sure if i believed Alfonso “The Fonzie” Boone would be our starting DE during the regular season. I thought well, meybe he is trying to push Turk and looks like for at least this moment that may be the case as Turk has now moved into the starting lineup ahead of Boone.
- Turk McBride replaced Alfonso Boone as the starting left defensive end in practice. Edwards stopped short of saying that the change is permanent, but he made it clear the battle is on.
“There are a lot of positions still open on this football team, a lot of competition going on,” Edwards said. “We want to make sure we get the guys in the right positions that want to do it the way we want to do it. If you do it that way, you’ve got a great chance to play for us.” [KC Star]
I just hope that if Turk beats out “The Fonzie” that it is because he deserves and not just because Boone is playing bad at DE. Although this camp especially Herm seems to playing the best player regardless so for that I applaud him.
