I think at least ONE of Toviano, Spears or Rodgers develop enough to start at one of the safety spots. Also the "Star/Nickel position in 2024 was manned by Perkins until his injury and then Burns after that. Now that Perkins will be back we are not sure which way Baker is leaning on that and it may end up being a situationally based rotation of a few players.

I think Perkins will go back to star. After his injury we started running more 4-3 and (to a lesser extent IIRC) 4-2-5 nickel. If Perkins is at star, you probably don’t need the 4-3 package much/at all since you can get similar looks by playing with his alignment and he’s probably the guy you want in the 4-3 package anyway. It just seems a lot more versatile to me.
Also I think it comes down to numbers and getting the best players on the field - right now I think you’re better off with Weeks + Keys + Perkins on the field than Weeks + Perkins + the next guy at star.

What if it’s the Penn State safety that just entered the portal?
