10 most important offensive players on Texas's roster for the 2024 season

8. Jake Majors, C

Texas's offensive line returned four out of its five starters from last season's squad, including the anchor of this group. Senior center Jake Majors is returning for his fourth year as a starter at Texas.

Last year, Majors continued to separate himself as not only one of the most underrated and underappreciated interior offensive linemen in the Power Five, but also one of the steadiest pass blockers. Majors has formed great chemistry in his multiple years snapping the ball for third-year starting quarterback Quinn Ewers.

The experience and reliability Majors brings to Texas's interior offensive line will be crucial when the Longhorns battle the many difficult trenches and defensive lines in the SEC week in and week out this fall.

7. Amari Niblack, TE

Another one of Texas's top transfer additions from this offseason is former Alabama Crimson Tide junior tight end Amari Niblack. The No. 1 transfer tight end from the 247Sports Composite this offseason will play a big role in Texas's downfield passing game and the many different two tight end sets Sarkisian likes to run on offense.

Niblack has the tools necessary to be an NFL-caliber tight end who puts up solid numbers and threatens opposing SEC defenses in multiple ways with his athleticism and big frame this season.

6. DJ Campbell, IOL

A potential huge riser up NFL Draft boards this fall is junior offensive guard DJ Campbell. The big and powerful 6-foot-3 and 330-pound Campbell could solidify his status as one of the most athletic and capable interior offensive line prospects in the 2025 NFL Draft class if he can prove himself worthy on film this fall for Texas.

Campbell was a solid starter for Texas at guard as he steadily improved throughout last season. I could see him becoming an All-SEC offensive linemen this fall if he continues to improve his consistency in his understanding of different techniques and blocking schemes for this upcoming season.
