First of all, Dantonio was asked about Burbridge's injury situation. It's been reported that Burbridge missed Friday's scrimmage and has been seen in a boot. Dantonio said he is not talking about injuries and offered no further comment on it.
Also, I spotted Gerald Owens playing defensive line today. Dantonio confirmed it is his first day trying it. No further comment, other than they want to get a look at a big body athlete on the other side of the ball.
Owens has had some impressive moments this spring as the No 3 RB. Now he is getting a look at d line for future reference and also possibly as a means if lighting the fuse under him just a little bit more. He may need it in the summer.
Kudos to Amie for predicting this move way back when Owens signed with MSU. But this is not final. This is common for A young player or two to see time on both sides of the ball in the spring.
