Falcons' Paul Worrilow may not lose starting job

Atlanta Falcons inside linebacker Paul Worrilow will hold onto his starting job, ESPN reporter Vaughn McClure believes.

What It Means:

Second-round rookie Deion Jones will certainly give him a run for his money, but McClure projects Worrilow will hold him off. At the very least, Jones should step in for the limited Worrilow in passing situations. Fourth-round rookie De'Vondre Campbell is expected to start on the weak-side.

With the 21st-ranked defense in the league last year, per our Adjusted Defensive Net Expected Points (NEP) per play metric, the Falcons are looking for a big boost.
