Defense dominates FAMU's 2nd spring scrimmage

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M’s defense has gone out of its way to impress new coach Willie Simmons.
The unit turned in a dominant performance in the Rattlers’ second spring scrimmage Saturday afternoon.
The offense, slowed by injuries, struggled with consistency during the 75-play session against a defense that showed -- and deftly disguised -- multiple formations.
The scrimmage also featured a notable visitor in Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton. His younger brother, Caylin Newton, is the starting quarterback at Howard and one of the MEAC's most dynamic players.
FAMU winds down spring practice this week in preparation of the annual Orange and Green Game Saturday at Bragg Memorial Stadium.
“I thought the defense made tremendous strides from scrimmage one to scrimmage two,” Simmons said Sunday.
