Oct 30, 2023, 1:10 PM | Updated: Oct 31, 2023, 10:51 am

PROVO, Utah – The latest BYU football depth chart is out as the Cougars make their first-ever trip to Morgantown, West Virginia, this week.

BYU will take on the West Virginia Mountaineers in only the second meeting all-time between the two programs.

There are only two published changes on this week’s depth chart.

Those changes are at running back, where LJ Martin is now a co-starter with Aidan Robbins. Martin is dealing with an undisclosed injury the team believes he suffered against Texas Tech.

Robbins was the starting ball carrier against Texas as Martin was sidelined.

The other change is on defense, where John Nelson is not listed at defensive tackle. Nelson is recovering from a right ankle injury he suffered against Texas Tech. He missed the Texas game.

The two-deep at defensive tackle features Jackson Cravens and JUCO transfer David Latu.
