Vinny Rey has been playing 100% of the snaps at WOLB. I just don't believe they will bench him when Burfict returns. So does Vinny move to SOLB? Does Vinny move to MLB and Maualuga back to SOLB?
Burfict would usually be one of the 2 "cover LBs" that play in our nickle package. It will be interesting to see if the Bengals play him in those situations or pull him off the field to rest his knee. Since we probably play more nickle and dime than we do straight 4-3 I'd like to see him play more oin that package, but our biggest problems have been stopping the run. So I am pretty sure we will see him on the field for most first and second downs.
And, I also realize that Burfict may not come back this year. But there are plenty of other threads to discuss that issue. this thread is about what will happen IF he returns.
