If Spence contributes this year, I think it will be on special teams and perhaps in passing down defenses later in the season. From what I remember seeing from him in the preseason last year, he looked good in coverage but struggled in the running game.

I saw a report from Wexell on twitter that Spence was having difficulty covering the physical therapist, so he still has a way to go. I would hope that he can get his feet wet a bit this year and then really compete next year.
