Special Teams (3)

Brandon McManus (K), Riley Dixon (P), Casey Kreiter (LS)

No need to change anything with this unit. Brandon McManus will continue kicking field goals and handling the kickoffs. Riley Dixon, who was impressive as a rookie, will handle the punts. And Casey Kreiter will continue handling long snapping duties. Kreiter did miss time with an injury and was ultimately placed on injured reserve.

As for the returners, I believe that Isaiah McKenzie will handle the bulk of the returns. However, Carlos Henderson does have experience as a punt returner and could see some time there too.
