We talked to Lincoln Riley about using Max Williams at safety to get him and Jaylin Smith on the field.
Josh Henson said he did not have a decision on Courtland Ford/Bobby Haskins and that both could play Saturday (that's been my expectation).
Dennis Simmons told me he has settled on a WR plan for Saturday and that the players know their roles, but he would not share it obviously.
Romello Height was not in a yellow jersey today -- good sign.
Riley said he'll release a depth chart after tomorrow's practice.
Here is who lined up with the first-team defense at the start of practice:
DL: Tuli Tuipulotu, Stanley Ta'ufo'ou, De'jon Benton
Rush: Romello Height
LB: Shane Lee, ERIC GENTRY
CB: Mekhi Blackmon, Ceyair Wright
NK: Jaylin Smith
S: Max Williams, Calen Bullock
Second-team:
DL: Nick Figueroa, Brandon Pili, Tyrone Taleni
Rush: Korey Foreman
LB: Ralen Goforth, Tuasivi Nomura
CB: Prophet Brown, Jacobe Covington
NK: Latrell McCutchin
S: Xamarion Gordon, Anthony Beavers
Third-team notables (lot of unidentifiable walkons)
Solomon Byrd, Julien Simon, Raesjon Davis, Domani Jackson
