fullback

Palmer has several assistant coaches with NFL and/or major college football experience, among them running backs coach Mike Karney, a bruising fixture at fullback for the New Orleans Saints; receivers coach T.J.

There was a fullback who was ruled ineligible before the first game when coaches learned he was significantly older than his teammates.

Jordan last fall while playing fullback, defensive end and receiver caught the attention of Colorado State assistant Chad Savage, who later joined USC as an assistant.

Canada, meanwhile, had to scrap whatever game plan it had in the 12th minute when Bayern Munich fullback Alphonso Davies, its best player, limped off with an injury.

The former Glasgow Warriors fullback amassed a century of senior caps for his country and was involved in three British and Irish Lions tours.
