2. Justin Mascoll

Justin Mascoll stepped in and earned his first start this past Saturday night with Justin Foster still out due to protocol.

While Mascoll, K.J. Henry, Myles Murphy and Ragan Upshaw all have talent, it was Mascoll who was the quietest of the group.

Earlier this week Dabo Swinney said that he didn’t have one defensive end with a winning grade and that is a clear directive pointed at the position to improve and we’d really like to see Mascoll show those improvements this week as the Tigers battle small depth issues at the position.
