Other way around Halo, he played MLB last season but struggled to transition to SLB.

Dennis Allen gave him more reps due to injuries vs Falcons, but Anthony badly lost contain on multiple plays and allowed the RB to get outside.

Apparently, it's all mental for Anthony now, he just needs to learn the outside position and make the plays to gain more playing time.

One thing i do respect is that they aren't just throwing him out there due to his draft position, if someone understands the spot better and is making plays then they deserve the starting spot.

Halo, ChrisXVI and Rell&Gold like this.
