Bowman's coverage skills will really be put to the test in this scheme. He'll always have the ability to diagnose and react to run plays. Knee injuries won't affect that. But on a passing play, can he backpeddle in his zone drop, react to a short pass in front of him, and come up to make a clean tackle? He busted his Achilles planting to change direction. It may take a few games to get over that mental hurdle.
Does the MLB or WILL have more coverage responsibility?
Normally the WILL.
I think his coverage abilities will be fine though, he'll have taken plenty of snaps in TC and pre-season to get over the memory of the injury.
