Camp scenario: Braswell is facing an uphill struggle to make the roster with Tyson Campbell healthy, second-year players Jarrian Jones and De’Antre Prince trending up, veteran Jourdan Lewis signed as a free agent and Travis Hunter in the mix. Braswell could step in if Montaric Brown’s leg injury keeps him out beyond the end of camp.

Christian Braswell on the defensive scheme

”I like to play off at times, play man, get to bump-and-run it. I love everything about this defense. There are times you get to blitz, times when we get to play bump-and-run and just keep eyes on the quarterback. We didn’t have that too much last year so I feel it’s a big plus for us to have eyes on the Q this year.”

Christian Braswell on competition

“I would like it it we didn’t have that atmosphere. ‘Tre [Prince], Tyson [Campbell], Jarrian [Jones], all of those guys are competing in the room. But at the end of the day when somebody makes a play it makes you want to go make a playt. It’s always feeding off each other, the energy, trying to be the best you can be.”
