Unlike previous years, Columbus Crew SC have enjoyed a tremendous amount of depth this season. The Black & Gold has received key contributions from players deeper on the roster and have adapted the “next man up” mentality.
One of those is 28-year-old midfielder/defender Hector Jimenez.
Since arriving to Columbus in 2014, Jimenez has made 24 appearances for the club in a variety of positions.
Head coach and former teammate Gregg Berhalter began converting Jimenez into a right back as he made 12 appearances at that position during the 2014 season.
