DAVIE -- He wouldn't name names.
But while failing to specifically identify exactly whom he was speaking about Thursday, Dolphins coach Nick Saban spelled out how he expects to use some of his personnel during Saturday night's exhibition game at Tampa Bay.
"Starters will play a little longer," Saban said, referring to last Saturday's 31-26 loss to Jacksonville. "If they played 12 to 15 plays last time, maybe they'll play a third more this time. It's not etched in stone, but they'll get a little more work."
Saban then seemingly hinted at the status of quarterback Daunte Culpepper and defensive tackle Dan Wilkinson.
"If a player played six to eight plays last time, maybe he'll play 12 to 14 plays this time, not being specific to any one person," said Saban, who limited Culpepper to six snaps in his first game action since suffering a major knee injury last October.
