Defensive Identity: Cornerback Depth and Nickel Flexibility

Cornerback room a strength: Whittingham confirms Snowden as primary nickel, Hill stays outside, Berry and Snowden interchangeable. Earls developing as former 5-star. Jay Hill's 4-2-5 60% installed; Daley (Achilles) and Moore (ACL) on pitch counts but sharp and on track for Week 1. Defense aims for unpredictability. Edge and LB competitions heating up.
