FAYETTEVILLE — Filling the leadership and production void left by Grant Morgan and Hayden Henry was among the top challenges for Arkansas heading into the 2022 season.

Morgan, who won the 2021 Burlsworth Trophy and became a bonafide All-SEC linebacker during his time with the Razorbacks, totaled 212 tackles in his final two years. He also served as an unquestioned voice of the team.

Henry, in recent seasons, was Morgan’s running mate at the second level.
