That's good news for Javari Liggins who returns at RB after sprinting for eight scores last season. Eddie Williams steps in at QB after starting a few games last year and posting average numbers. The defense will be led by Justin Rochon up front, Michael Woods and Avery Morris at LB, and Traveon Kelly in the secondary. After last year's .500 campaign, there is certainly room for improvement.
