Both starters, Michael Jerrell and Ethan Onianwa, struggled mightily, with Jerrell flagged for false starts and Onianwa looking overmatched against NFL pass rushers. Nine penalties, including multiple pre-snap infractions, further crippled the offense. While seventh-round rookie Onianwa showed potential, he’s clearly not ready for prime time. The good news? Jawaan Taylor is expected back for Week One — and he could be the upgrade this team desperately needs at the most vulnerable position.
