Texas LB Depth Chart Adjusted | Texas Longhorns Football News

Texas football’s linebacker depth chart just got shaken up after key tackler Ty’Anthony Smith bolted the program, but don’t panic—the coaching staff had a plan. Pitt transfer Rasheem Biles, already primed to be the starter and a Preseason All-American, is ready to shoulder the load with his explosive playmaking and ACC-leading tackles for loss. To fill behind him, safety Jordon Johnson-Rubell is stepping into the role—smaller than expected, but a proven tackler with special teams chops that should translate well against the run. While Biles may face heavier early-season demands against bigger backs, Johnson-Rubell has the potential to evolve into Smith’s replacement. It’s not perfect, but it’s workable—and Texas still has a shot to make noise this season. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
