Depth Chart: UConn football Week 5 vs. Utah State

Some changes on the defensive side of the ball for Jim Mora’s squad.

The UConn Huskies are getting ready to host the Utah State Aggies this Saturday at Rentschler Field. The depth chart came out on Tuesday.

The main changes to the two-deep this week come on the defensive side of the ball.

Last week, Jelani Stafford and Sokoya McDuffie were listed in an “OR” situation at defensive tackle. This week, Stafford is listed as the starter. Malik Dixon-Williams, who was listed as the starter at free safety in Week 1 but was injured in the game, is now back as the starter there.

On Saturday night, Graham Chamberlain of Pawsarf Blog posted that Eriq Gilyard, who transferred in from Kansas for his final season, has left the team. He is no longer on the depth chart nor is he listed on the roster. Maurice Wilmer takes his spot as the backup to Jackson Mitchell.

Alex Honig remains out, so the same six tight ends from last week are all there, as well as the wide receivers.
