Notes: The Indians return the majority of its skill players on offense, including its backfield and wide receivers. ... Paul, who shared the duties at quarterback last year, will lead an offense with a young offensive line. ... Defensively, the Tribe will rely on Keller, Fleming, Kerr, Hale and Majeed. As of last Friday, the team has six to eight starters out of action due to various injuries.
