Jaden Walker

My defense, starting from defensive end, is Cameron Crawford, Tom Tom Tapui, Alex Van Sumeren, and Luke Wayfull to round out my defensive line.

My linebackers are Jaden Walker, Talanoa Ely, and my safety and secondary begins with Alex Graham, Madden Reardon, Kendarius Reddick, Chasen Johnson, and Albert Hill.

Shotgun, what do you have? So

on my side...

No.

But where I think that this is interesting is Jaden Walker, 75.2 in only nine snaps.

Uh, the linebackers as a whole rated out pretty good in this game, which I think th- like, bodes well going forward because you need the linebackers to be more proactive.

So yeah, and Elijah Newby got the, the big defensive play a week ago with the strip sack, uh, against, uh, Washington.

And I was particularly interested in just...

The rotation and the consistency of it, committing to Elijah Newby and Jaden Walker on third down, and Shotgun can say if that was 100%, but I felt like it was the majority of third downs for sure, and then just rolling with Devin Bryan and Tamir Robinson on the first and second downs, they looked coordinated.

They looked like they were in the places they were supposed to be, and there were far fewer misses there.

than we'd seen previously.

So you saw that on third downs when they bring the linebackers in.

Those guys blitzed once or twice, but I think it was seven, eight snaps that Elijah Newby and Jaden Walker had side by side.

And often they would fake a blitz and then just kind of wait back and be extra spies playing a short zone against that.

So that was part of the game plan as well.

Desmond Stevens, no surprise, much more concerning.

Jaden Walker, second worst.

He is the starting linebacker for USC going into Washington and Devin Bryant is playing his former team.

So the linebacker storylines next, this weekend are going to be fun.

The big tackle in the middle of the field to stop a drive.

Jaden Walker at times was physical, but he also looked like he was still banged up.

He asked to come out a couple times, so I think he's still a little bit hobbled.

Devin Bryant did struggle in this game, especially when they got him in one-on-one coverages.

They didn't even execute the kneel down right.

SP Trojan.

What happened to Jaden Walker? He's definitely been better in coverage than Bryant.

I mean, part of it is he's been on the injury report.
