Names like Cashius Howell and one unexpected depth piece looked very good.
So, too, did Landon Robinson.
The fan-favorite seventh-round pick made some notable splash plays during the live broadcast and it has only been reinforced when looking at the film and numbers.

And numbers like, say, the fact Robison played a defense-high 46 snaps and had a sack, quarterback hit and a run stop along the way.
This is the type of showing that matches the hype generated by fans and if it keeps up, Robinson won’t have that many problems separating himself and pushing someone like McKinnley Jackson off the final roster when the time comes.
