No, because Gay would take most of the planned snaps, and unless Hitchens misses time to injury, Niemann doesn't get those snaps this season either.
Niemann probably gets some snaps in base 4-3, but we're not in that but about 25-30% of the time.
So if you're talking a rookie LB, he'll get a slice of what is a max 30% of defensive snaps.
I'm not opposed to it, if he's your eventual Hitchens replacement, but realistically you're probably looking at 2023 for that.
