Two league debuts on Roscommon team to face Tyrone
Declan Kenny will make his league debut for Roscommon against Tyrone on Sunday next.
Roscommon senior football manager, Davy Burke, has named two league debutantes in his starting 15 to face Tyrone in Omagh on Sunday.
Evan Flynn (Tulsk Lord Edwards) is named at full-back line, while Declan Kenny (Pádraig Pearses) has been named at wing-forward.
Without the suspended Enda Smith and the St. Brigid's players, the team is along expected lines, although Cathal Heneghan misses out on the match-day 26 through injury.
Niall Higgins, who made his league debut against Meath in 2022, joins Flynn and David Murray to complete the Roscommon full-back line.
Daire Cregg, who has started the season in impressive form, has been held in reserve.
Keith Doyle and Dylan Ruane will team up in midfield, while Tadhg O'Rourke could be in line to make his long-awaited return from injury after being named in the panel.
