I also suspect Little and Sarrell will play.  Question:  Even if not ready for jumbo type plays this week, might they get action in FG protection given the space they occupy?

Watch me be totally wrong, but I would guess they aren't going to burn a redshirt for FG protection, even if it has already been decided that there will be no redshirt, let alone if it is still up in the air. Once you step on the field, it is done. I expect that won't happen for a basically meaningless appearance. Until then, there are options.
