Ole Miss releases updated depth chart ahead of Florida game

BY Taylor Hodges

Official depth charts usually don’t mean a whole lot. Most positions operate on more of a rotational basis than relying on just the starter.

Starting quarterbacks and offensive line are usually the only positions that don’t have multiple players coming in and out of games.

Also, sometimes obvious changes to who’s starting aren’t reflected in the official depth chart (see the quarterback position below).

Sometimes, though, the changes do matter and there is one change in the latest Ole Miss depth chart.

Wydett Williams Jr. is now listed as one of the three starting safeties and Nick Cull was moved to a backup position.
