    In recent years, Steve Sarkisian hasn’t released the first depth chart of the season until Texas’ opening game.
    Assuming that’s the case again in 2026, and the first depth chart isn’t made public until Saturday, when the Longhorns kick off Sarkisian’s sixth season against Texas State (2:30 p.m., ESPN), On Texas Football has you covered.
    We’re making a final depth chart projection before the season starts, which comes with a few key things to know:
    — Texas reportedly utilized two-back personnel in both camp scrimmages. That’s why we’re keeping Hollywood Smothers and Raleek Brown as co-starters at running back, although Smothers (based on what sources have told OTF throughout camp) is the current favorite to be the first back on the field.
    — After the top three wideouts on the roster (Cam Coleman, Emmett Mosley V and Ryan Wingo), Sterling Berkhalter, Jermaine Bishop Jr. and Daylan McCutcheon appear to be locked in as the top three backups.
    — Andre Cojoe, who’s in line to start against Texas State at left tackle if Trevor Goosby (knee) can’t go, is the team’s No. 3 tackle. Jaydon Chatman has worked at multiple positions in camp (and throughout his career). Along with Chatman, Jackson Christian, Cole Hutson and Dylan Sikorski are the top reserves on the interior.
    — The Longhorns have listed three interior defensive line positions on the depth chart under Sarkisian. Expect to see the top two at each position featured in the rotation, with Myron Charles making a push throughout camp to earn snaps.
    — We’ve got Colton Vasek on the depth chart at EDGE and SAM linebacker, where he’ll play situationally. We’re also putting Jordon Johnson-Rubell with the WLB group and the safeties.
    — After the top-four safeties, Toray Davis is currently projected to be the fifth safety in line for snaps.

    AUSTIN, Texas — Steve Sarkisian’s prayers — along with those of Trevor Goosby, his family and Longhorn fans who waited with bated breath for the official word on the severity of the left knee injury Goosby sustained in practice on Monday — were answered when Texas’ franchise left tackle was diagnosed with a bone bruise.
    “I was glad I went to church,” Sarkisian said after Saturday’s scrimmage.
    Sarkisian, who met with the media on Zoom after wrapping up the scrimmage, which came with two weeks to go until the Sept. 5 season opener against Texas State, said Goosby “is making really good progress.”
    While the Longhorns took the field for their second camp scrimmage without the 6-foot-7-inch, 325-pound Goosby available, he’s expected back sooner rather than later. That’s a much better outcome than the initial concern that Texas might’ve lost its 2025 All-SEC bookend for an extended period of time to a non-contact injury.
    “Those are probably more scary than contact injuries," Sarkisian said. "Why did that occur non-contact? Why did he kind of buckle the way that he did? We were on grass. It wasn't during the day; it wasn't too hot to where he didn't have his balance.
    “That was as good of news as we could've received,” he added. “For that to be the result back, it was definitely a sigh of relief.”
    With Goosby on the mend, Andre Cojoe has made the most of his opportunity. The 6-foot-6-inch, 339-pound Cojoe, who took all of the first-team snaps at left tackle on Saturday, On Texas Football has learned, has come on strong enough that Sarkisian publicly gave him the nod as the team’s No. 3 tackle behind Goosby and Melvin Siani heading into the season.
    “The fact that he's getting these quality reps right now with the ones and having to block Colin (Simmons) and Lance (Jackson) and Zina (Umeozulu) and those guys, and Rasheem Biles coming off the edge, I think those are great opportunities for him,” Sarkisian said of Cojoe, who was competing with Brandon Baker for the starting right tackle job last preseason before he suffered a season-ending knee injury.
    Sarkisian acknowledged that the road to recovery for an offensive lineman attempting to return from a knee injury can be arduous. Nevertheless, Cojoe’s work has positioned him to be the first offensive tackle off the bench for what has the potential to be one of the most explosive and productive offenses in the country in 2026, a little more than a year after his injury.
    “He's got his weight to where, you know, he's a big man, but he's light on his feet,” Sarkisian said. “He can move. He's explosive.”
    Sarkisian said Cojoe will come out of the scrimmage having learned more about the physical and mental conditioning required to play consistently well for upwards of 70 snaps against top-notch competition. Still, Saturday capped off a week in which the fourth-year lineman’s stock is on the rise.
    “I would argue there were two or three days this week you didn't notice that it was him at left tackle,” Sarkisian said. “That's a great thing as an offensive lineman. When you're not noticing who it is, that just means the guy is doing his job really well.”
    The strides made by Cojoe and Dylan Sikorski, who took the bulk of the first-team left guard snaps throughout the week and in Saturday’s scrimmage as Laurence Seymore works through what Sarkisian said was an “injury hiccup” coming out of the first camp scrimmage, have gone a long way toward Sarkisian and Kyle Flood fielding the kind of depth the Longhorns lacked last season. Sarkisian expects Seymore to be back on the practice field on Monday, but the progress of Cojoe and Sikorski has Sarkisian feeling good about how things are unfolding on the left side of the offensive line.
    “I do think we're going to get the left side back, but on the same token, I do think these reps are good for these guys because, knock on wood, I don't know if, when, what, how injuries might occur in season,” Sarkisian said. “The fact that these guys are getting some reps with our ones against high-level defenders, I think is good for them, preparing them for the season.”
    Even though Sarkisian admitted that Cojoe isn’t a finished product, he’s liked what he’s seen from the Mansfield Timberview product throughout camp enough to believe Texas is better equipped now than it was in 2025 to handle sudden lineup changes in the trenches.
    “He's still got room to grow and still can continue to improve, but I have been pleased with his ability to step in at that position,” Sarkisian said of Cojoe. “I think it gives us confidence for the future if something were to occur that he could step in and play well for us.”

    TyAnthony Smith’s departure from the Texas football program didn’t catch Steve Sarkisian and the Longhorns by surprise.
    Nevertheless, there’s never a good time for a starting-caliber player and a college football program to part ways, especially two weeks before the season starts.
    With Smith out of the picture, there are a few things to consider about where Texas goes from here.
    — Rasheem Biles was already one of the most indispensable Longhorns on the 2026 squad. While his status doesn’t change in the wake of Smith’s departure, Justin Cryer is suddenly significantly higher on the list of players Texas can least afford to lose.
    Behind Biles and Cryer, Darius Snow (232 snaps played last season at Michigan State, according to Pro Football Focus) and Markus Boswell (199 snaps at Akron in 2025) are the only experienced scholarship linebackers in Johnny Nansen’s room (Brady Sarkisian has 20 career snaps, according to PFF). Brad Spence has a specific role as the overhang linebacker in Will Muschamp’s defense, but he’s limited as an off-the-ball defender playing in space.
    Smith’s departure means there’s no margin for error. The Longhorns are one stroke of bad luck away from being in a world of hurt at the second level.
    — Could Texas go into the transfer portal for help?
    “Never say never,” is what a source told On Texas Football earlier in the week (the comment was regarding the roster in general, not linebacker specifically).
    It’s not as simple as targeting an experienced player with the most skins on the wall and putting forth a competitive NIL package to add another body to the room.
    Even before scouting comes into play, the Longhorns would have to target players who have rock-solid cases for remaining eligible in 2026. The focus would then shift to acclimation on the field (two practices in helmets only, two in shells and then full-pads practices would be green-lit under NCAA rules) and how quickly Muschamp and Nansen could get the new acquisition up to speed.
    It’s a nuanced process and would be something the staff would have to vet quickly, but searching the portal for linebacker help is a road Texas might travel.
    — What about converting a player from another position to add depth?
    Jonathan Cunningham, who has worked with the secondary throughout camp, has spent time at linebacker since getting to campus. Jordon Johnson-Rubell has also been in the linebacker room, giving the coaches two immediate options if adding numbers at the position is a priority.
    Other than the two defensive backs, there aren’t any slam-dunk options for position conversions. Similar to the portal, an unexpected position conversion would likely focus developing a player who can provide depth late in the season, potentially when it's all hands on deck for a deep run in the College Football Playoff.
    — The most realistic option Muschamp and Nansen have is to get the three true freshmen (Tyler Atkinson, Rocky Cummings and Kosi Okpala) up to speed and ready for action in a hurry.
    The Longhorns’ ability to control the two non-Power Four non-conference games against Texas State and UTSA is now paramount for the expedited development of the young linebackers. Those are the only two games on the schedule where the coaches can plan for the three freshmen to play consequential snaps.
    That will likely only happen if the outcome isn’t in doubt in the second half against the Bobcats and Roadrunners, respectively.
    Nothing about what the Longhorns are facing is ideal. Although Texas having better front-line players at linebacker or safety is debatable, it's also fair to say the Smith news allowed the former to overtake the latter as the biggest positional question mark on defense in 2026.

    Texas avoided disaster along the offensive line on Tuesday, with left tackle Trevor Goosby's left knee injury diagnosed as a bone bruise, as On Texas Football has confirmed.
    The injury, which occurred Monday evening during a Longhorn camp practice, was initially reported by Anwar Richardson. OTF’s Bobby Burton reported that Goosby "walked off the field fine" after the injury, which occurred in the first half of practice, while OTF’s Gerry Hamilton was told that the injury was a left-knee hyperextension.
    Sources with knowledge of the situation told OTF on Tuesday that Goosby underwent an MRI on Tuesday morning. At approximately 10:45 a.m., ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported that the injury was a bone bruise, which OTF has confirmed.
    The timetable for Goosby’s recovery and return to action is still to be determined.
    Although Goosby will be out of action for an undetermined period, the burnt orange faithful can breathe easy, knowing that the 6-foot-7-inch, 325-pound first-team All-SEC selection will be back at some point. The focus now shifts to what Steve Sarkisian and Kyle Flood will do to fill a Texas-sized void at left tackle with Goosby on the mend.
    One option is to move right tackle Melvin Siani into Goosby’s spot until the projected 2027 first-round NFL draft pick returns.
    The 6-foot-6-inch, 317-pound Siani was a 13-game starter at left tackle for Wake Forest in 2025, logging 859 snaps. An accomplished pass blocker, Siani received a glowing review from Sarkisian following the team’s Monday morning walkthrough for his rapid development and prowess as a run-blocking tackle.
    “Honestly, I'll be quite frank with everybody — I thought I was getting a pass protector when we recruited him,” Sarkisian said. “I'm getting a tough-ass run blocker who is a good pass protector. That's encouraging for us because, clearly, we know how important the run game is going to be for us.”
    If Siani moves to left tackle, the question then becomes whether the Longhorns would move Brandon Baker back to right tackle, where he started all 13 games as a sophomore in 2025, or keep him at right guard, where his athleticism has given the Texas offense a lift?
    Baker moving back to right tackle would open a spot for Cole Hutson, who recently rejoined the team after the door was open for members of the 2022 recruiting class to play an additional season. With starts under his belt at center and left guard in his four-year career, Hutson was a 13-game starter at right guard as a true freshman, helping pave the way for Bijan Robinson to become the fourth Longhorn to win the Doak Walker Award and the fifth Texas running back to be named a unanimous All-American.
    Hutson and Dylan Sikorski rotated at left guard during the team's scrimmage last Saturday after Laurence Seymore's exit. Sarkisian said on Monday that Seymore is dealing with "a little bit of an injury hiccup."
    "Nothing long-term," Sarkisian said of what Seymore is dealing with, "but he only got a chance to play 11 plays of real, live football."
    Baker sticking at right guard would cloud the picture of what the Longhorns might do, especially with Siani at left tackle.
    Jordan Coleman, who took all of the first-team snaps at left tackle during spring practice while Goosby was recovering from shoulder surgery, could be an option at right tackle or at left tackle if Sarkisian and Flood wanted to keep Siani on the right side. Jonte Newman, who transferred to Texas from Texas A&M during the portal window, has reportedly made strides during camp. Andre Cojoe continues to work his way back from a 2025 preseason knee injury. Jaydon Chatman has worked at both tackle spots throughout his career, including at left tackle in camp.
    No matter the direction the Longhorns go, they aren’t dealing with the worst-case scenario, which would be going through the season without Goosby. While a player of Goosby's caliber can't be replaced (for however long he's out, Texas will sorely miss his presence and production at one of the most important positions on the field), Sarkisian and Flood have suitable options to keep the offensive line afloat until Goosby returns.

    AUSTIN, Texas — It’s one thing for Texas to enter the transfer portal and land a plug-and-play offensive tackle like Melvin Siani.
    The arrival of the Wake Forest transfer, who flashed legitimate NFL potential as the Demon Deacons’ left tackle in 2025, strengthened the Longhorns' offensive line by allowing the staff to move Brandon Baker inside from right tackle to right guard.
    It’s quite another, however, for Siani to surpass internal expectations before playing a game in burnt orange.
    “Honestly, I'll be quite frank with everybody — I thought I was getting a pass protector when we recruited him,” Steve Sarkisian said after the Longhorns’ Monday morning camp practice. “I'm getting a tough-ass run blocker who is a good pass protector. That's encouraging for us because, clearly, we know how important the run game is going to be for us.”
    Sarkisian was right to believe in Siani’s ability to protect the quarterback. According to Pro Football Focus, the 6-foot-6-inch, 317-pound Siani allowed only nine pressures on 456 opportunities in 2025.
    Siani’s PFF grade of 67 as a run blocker (PFF considers a grade of 70 above average) wouldn’t indicate he dominated Wake Forest’s competition in the ACC (although the Demon Deacons were most successful running the ball over the left side of the line). Still, Siani’s grade on 372 run-blocking snaps would’ve been the fourth-best grade among Texas offensive linemen last season, trailing only Trevor Goosby (82.1), DJ Campbell (73.6) and Cole Hutson (71.6).
    Siani graded slightly higher as a zone blocker (68.4) than on gap runs (64.3). With Siani’s athletic ability and Baker's move to guard, the revamped right side of the Longhorn offensive line has the tools to help Sarkisian establish a ground attack with a zone-based foundation.
    Nevertheless, that might be the tip of the iceberg for the Texas running game considering Siani has barely scratched the surface of his potential.
    Siani played one season of high school football in Canada before attending Wyoming Seminary, a college preparatory school in Pennsylvania. After preserving a season of eligibility after playing in just four games as a true freshman at Temple in 2023, Siani opened the 2024 season as the starting right tackle for the Owls, making nine starts in 11 games and playing 600 snaps.
    Siani has shown enough growth to be on the radar as a prospect for the 2027 NFL Draft. Mike Renner of CBS Sports has Siani ranked as the No. 10 offensive tackle prospect for next spring’s draft with a late-third-round grade (Siani is listed on the Texas roster as a senior, but he has two seasons of eligibility remaining).
    Where Renner (and, presumably, NFL coaches, scouts and executives) wants to see Siani improve is where Sarkisian has seen notable growth in the seven months that Siani has been a member of the program.
    “Where I need to see Siani improve is in his play strength and balance,” Renner said. “Often, those problems go hand in hand, as the latter compensates for the former. He gets overaggressive trying to make first contact and ends up on the turf. He'll have two years to fix that problem against SEC competition if he wants to.”
    And Texas might be the perfect place for Siani to continue his upward trend.
    Along with Goosby’s return tempering expectations for Siani as a portal addition at one of the most important positions on the field and the aforementioned factors working in his favor (like playing next to Baker, who has a full season of SEC trench battles under his belt), Siani is in an offense that’s similar to the one he played in at Wake Forest under offensive coordinator Rob Ezell.
    Ezell was a graduate assistant at Alabama while Sarkisian was an analyst for Nick Saban in 2016 and was an analyst for the Crimson Tide when Sarkisian returned to Tuscaloosa as Saban’s offensive coordinator in 2019 and 2020 (Kyle Flood followed Sarkisian from the Atlanta Falcons to be Alabama’s offensive line coach and then to Austin). Siani's experience in Ezell's offense paid off when he started learning the Longhorns' offense in the spring.
    “Some of the plays literally have the same name because it’s all that Nick Saban tree,” Siani said in an interview with "3rd and Longhorn" earlier this month. “There’s a lot of similarities in the offense that just made that transition even easier and more seamless. I wasn’t complaining at all.”
    The only complaints coming from Siani's side of the line of scrimmage will likely be the opposing defenders reacting to being on the receiving end of the physical play of Texas' budding star.
