Nate Webster
Nate Webster gets the start
at middle linebacker tonight, but Niko Koutouvides
is still very much in the running for the job.
Throughout training camp, Webster and Koutouvides have
taken turns practicing with the first team. Usually,
each player gets two consecutive days with the first
unit, and then they switch. Shanahan said they’ll
take turns in the preseason games, too.
“Both of them will get a chance to play with the
starting defense, and we’ll evaluate both of
them,” he said. “I feel good about both of
them.”
