• The biggest move on the defensive depth chart is the elevation of defensive tackle Sheldon Day who has been on injured reserve for the start of the season due to a knee injury. Day goes into the depth chart as the third player listed at the defensive/under tackle (3 technique) position.
• Another move on the depth chart was defensive end Ron’Dell Carter being moved from one defensive end spot to the other side at defensive end. Carter has been inactive ever since he was signed from the Dallas Cowboys in late September.
