He played a total of 47 snaps on defense all year.
The 6th LB is all about special teams. Even during Burfict's suspension, Nickerson will likely never line up on defense.
I don't think we need to worry about the difference in special teams between Flowers and Nickerson. We basically got our 7th round pick back that we spent on Chris Smith for 3 games worth of Flowers over Nickerson.
Not really something worth complaining or worrying about, I wouldn't think.
Only reason im complaining about it is since i first heard the story about how marv coached his dad i instantly thought there was one of marvs roster spots decided not by football talent.
I thought he looked totally out classed on an nfl field. Here he is on our 53 man roster. Not because of talent. Because of our head coach.
