Duncan likely is the highlight prospect scouts will be enticed with when it comes to first-round chatter. Standing 6-foot-6 and weighing 320 pounds, Duncan has the size, agility, and upside general managers covet in potential franchise left tackles.
Bennett, a 2-year starter, has totaled 36 total tackles and 9 pass deflections in 9 games. Last season, the 5-foot-11 defender totaled a career-high 11 pass deflections to go along with 24 tackles.
Ryland, likely 1 of 2 kickers who will be invited to the game, has made 11 of 15 field goals this season, including pair of 50+ kicks against Michigan State and Michigan, respectively. A transfer from Eastern Michigan, Ryland has made 75.3% of his kicks since 2018.
The Terps will play host to Ohio State before closing out the season against Rutgers.
