Rapid Reaction: Depth chart musings, including a young DB and former transfer ILB who have made moves | Football



** At running back, Gabe Ervin Jr. and Markese Stepp are listed as co-starters. Ervin has started each of the Huskers’ first two games, but Stepp carried 18 times for 101 yards on Saturday and was the most efficient against Fordham. 

** Turner Corcoran and Brant Banks have the “OR” designation at left tackle, but Corcoran started and played all of the reps with the No. 1 group on Saturday and is the likely starter going forward. Banks’ reps against Fordham came at guard. 

** Eteva Mauga-Clements worked his way onto the depth chart at inside linebacker, joining Garrett Snodgrass as the two names listed behind the three-man rotation of Nick Henrich, Luke Reimer and Chris Kolarevic. 

** Interesting that Nebraska has five “defensive line” positions listed on its depth chart, a nickel spot and no “outside linebackers.” NU has essentially aligned like a 4-3 outfit through the first two games and has also mixed in some five-man front looks as well as 3-4. 

** Several players who did not appear in Saturday’s game due to injury are listed, but that’s not a surprise. NU under Frost has typically kept players who are out with injuries on the depth chart unless the player is out for the season or going to miss substantial time. 

This week, those include starting WR Oliver Martin, No. 2 TE Travis Vokolek, DL Casey Rogers and No. 2 RG Broc Bando.
