Gatkuoth’s homecoming is an edge-setting test, not a pass-rush showcase.

Nuer Gatkuoth, the fourth overall pick, returns to Edmonton with a wave of emotion and a large family crowd at Commonwealth — but opposing offences will try to bait the rookie defensive end upfield and run at his vacancy. His ability to stay square, read zone runs, and hold the edge on early downs will decide whether Winnipeg trusts him in high-leverage pass situations in the second half.
