Evaluating the Special Teams with ST Coordinator Craig Aukerman - Ricky Henne
When you say his name, my face lights up.  We are very excited about him, but he just can’t show up and make plays.  The players around him have to get better, too.  We expect a lot of good things out of Travis, but we expect the players blocking for him to perform better than last year.  It’s not just on Travis; it’s on everyone else, too.
