UConn football depth chart & breakdown for CCSU Blue Devils

UConn football head coach Jim Mora has released his depth chart for Saturday’s upcoming home opener vs the Central Connecticut State Blue Devils and as you’d expect there are changes.

• With the season-ending injury to Ta’Quan Roberson, Zion Turner is now the starter at quarterback for the Huskies. He’ll be backed up by Cale Millen and Tyler Phommachanh.
• Jacob Flynn replaces Keelan Marion, who will miss a significant amount of time with a broken collarbone, at one of the starting wide receiver spots.
• After his 190 yards rushing, Nate Carter has ascended to the top of the depth chart at running back. He’ll be backed up by Brian Brewton, who saw action in last week’s game after missing parts of the preseason with an injury.
• Collin McCarthy started at defensive tackle last week and is listed there this week. He swaps spots with Sokoya McDuffie, who also saw action vs Utah State.
• George Caratan handled the punting duties in the opener and is now listed as the starter.
• With Marion out and Carter handling a bulk of the workload at running back, Devontae Houston and Brewton are listed as the starters at kick returner this week. Houston is also listed as the starting punt returner with Brewton as his backup.
