BYU football depth chart: UCF week notes
The 12th depth chart of the 2025 BYU football season gets everyone ready for Senior Day against the UCF Knights.
Reserve linebacker shakeup
The lone change to this week’s depth chart is at the MACK linebacker position.
Second-string MACK backer Max Alford was out last week due to an injury he suffered against TCU. Entering this week’s game against UCF, Alford remains off the depth chart.
Behind Siale Esera at the MACK linebacker spot on this week’s depth chart is Miles Hall.
Hall was the reserve middle linebacker last season behind then-starter Harrison Taggart in 2024. The former Skyline High standout earned significant playing time late in the 2024 season.
Hall moved over from the ROVER linebacker spot to the MACK position in this week’s depth chart.
After Hall is true freshman Pierson Watson.
At ROVER, Jack Kelly is the starter, followed by Ace Kaufusi.
