I don't think I've heard his name called one time in the first 2 games which surprises me. Has he been on the field most of the time and is just ineffective or has CBJ just been playing him sparingly?
His name has been called a few times and he's been on a number of group tackles. Had a shoe string tackle on Knighten and has had some pressures.
Had Leonard Little on the show this morning. He thinks it's more of a shaking off rust issues. Said Maggitt seems to be a bit hesitant and that should change as the season moves on.
He's gained a lot of weight, that is going to effect his explosiveness a bit, he is also playing a bit with his hand in the dirt, something he hasn't done since high school. There is definitely a learning curve with how to use your hands, etc with his new position. I've re-watched both games a couple of times, focusing on Maggitt quite a bit, and he is in on a lot of the plays but is just barely missing on making impact plays right now. He's not the same player he was and he is having to learn to adjust to that. Janceck said during Utah State week that he is having to work himself back into game shape.
