Plug with the protruding hex shaft will take a hex pulley or sprocket to drive the roller and the plain roller plug will be the non-driven side of the roller and just accept another shoulder bolt.

EDIT: Picture of 254's robot from this year shows how (I think) it's supposed to work. https://www.team254.com/photos/72157...0/26920320025/
