UCLA Football Position Battles | UCLA Bruins Football News

UCLA football’s training camp kicks off with chaos and opportunity—every position except QB is up for grabs. Nico Iamaleava returns under center, but the real drama’s everywhere else. Wayne Knight leads the running back corps, with Jaivian Thomas and Anthony Woods ready to step in. On defense, Sahir West looks like a breakout edge rusher, flanked by Aiden Gobaira and other transfers. Wide receiver is wide open, with Mikey Matthews returning and transfers Landon Ellis and Leland Smith expected to start. Even center is contested, with James Madison’s Riley Robell challenging for the spot. The biggest battles? Offensive guard, where Eugene Brooks and Julian Armella face stiff competition from transfers like Carter Sweazie. UCLA’s season hinges on depth behind Knight, a reliable receiver, a strong edge partner for West, and a solid offensive line.
