I don't think he's going to be playing much and will end up leaving next year with little to no impact honestly. I think Bain, Mesidor, Blount, Lightfoot, and Lowe AT MIN are above him in the depth chart. Pickett maybe he has the edge on. McConathy is a different type of EDGE entirely, but I think he'll see snaps too. So he's going into his junior year as likely the 5th or 6th option at EDGE. Like to me, he Is guaranteed to leave if he doesn't do much this year. Meanwhile Rudolph is talented and could develop in a year or two and then stick around and contribute, whereas Bryant is almost definitely gone.
Maybe Bryant is much more of a LB hybrid, whereas Rudolph is more of an actual EDGE type that just hasn't put the weight on yet though, and maybe Hetherman has a role that fits Bryant well though... idk.
