Ahead of Tuesday’s pregame press conference for the Boise State Broncos game this Saturday, UConn Huskies football coach Bob Diaco has released his two-deep for the game and there are some changes to it from the one versus Stony Brook.
The most obvious change is at quarterback where Tim Boyle moves into the number two spot behind Chandler Whitmer after the announcement yesterday of Casey Cochran‘s career being over due to concussions. Redshirt freshman Will Rishell is listed third on the depth chart as well at quarterback.
Dalton Gifford is now in an “OR” situation with Andreas Knappe at right tackle. Knappe had missed the first two games with a lower leg injury. Thomas Hopkins, who was backing up Gifford, is no longer listed on the depth chart.
We’ll learn more today about how Diaco will move forward with the quarterbacks so be sure to check back later this afternoon.
