Post-press conference depth chart revealed: Slight changes on both sides of the ball

The offensive and defensive staff discussed quite a few of their players yesterday, and with that information it's time to formulate an updated depth chart for both sides of the ball

The coaches' press conferences have officially come and gone, marking what could be the last time that we hear from them until after the 2025 season. Based on some of the things that the offensive and defensive staff said about the players, we're going to put together an updated depth chart of what things could look like now as fall camp gets underway.

It's always fun catching up with the coaching staff, and with the new coaching rules in place, there were even more position coaches available to speak this time around.

There seems to have been a few changes to both depth charts over the past two weeks, and it's reasonable to say that this might be the most accurate one out there right now:

* indicates true freshman

OFFENSE

QB: Arch Manning, Matthew Caldwell, Trey Owens

RB: Quintrevion Wisner, C.J. Baxter, Jerrick Gibson

WR-X: Ryan Wingo, Parker Livingstone, Rett Andersen

WR-Z: Emmett Mosley V, Aaron Butler, Kaliq Lockett*

WR-H/Slot: DeAndre Moore Jr., Daylan McCutcheon*, Jaime Ffrench*

TE: Jack Endries, Jordan Washington, Spencer Shannon

LT: Trevor Goosby, Nick Brooks*, Jaydon Chatman

LG: Neto Umeozulu, Nate Kibble, Jackson Christian*

C: Cole Hutson, Connor Robertson, Daniel Cruz

RG: D.J. Campbell, Connor Stroh, Rick McBroom

RT: Brandon Baker, Andre Cojoe, Robert Sweeney

DEFENSE

JACK: Ethan Burke, Colton Vasek, Justus Terry*

NT: Cole Brevard, Hero Kanu, Alex January

DT: Travis Shaw, Maraad Watson, LaVon Johnson

BUCK: Colin Simmons, Brad Spence, Zina Umeozulu

SAM: Trey Moore, Ty'Anthony Smith, Marshall Landwehr

MIKE: Anthony Hill Jr., Elijah Barnes*

WILL: Liona Lefau, Jonathan Cunningham*, Brady Sarkisian

CB: Malik Muhammad, Jaylon Guilbeau, Jordon Johnson-Rubell

CB: Kobe Black, Warren Roberson, Wardell Mack

FS: Michael Taaffe, Derek Williams Jr., Graham Gillespie

SS: Jelani McDonald, Jonah Williams*, Xavier Filsaime

NOTES

- Brad Spence has made a full-time move to BUCK.

- Justus Terry is working at JACK right now, which is scary with his build and athleticism.

- The staff really likes Daylan McCutcheon and Aaron Butler, both move up the depth chart.

- Despite not being on the current 3-deep, the staff is high on true freshman DE Lance Jackson.

- Jaylon Guilbeau has moved from nickel to outside cornerback.

- Jordan Washington might have a decent-sized role in 2025 despite the addition of Jack Endries at tight end.

- Brandon Baker and Andre Cojoe are still both competing for the starting right tackle spot.

- Warren Roberson was drawing lots of praise at cornerback.

- Hero Kanu has been turning heads in practice in the middle of Texas' defensive line.
