Some post-bowl game depth chart news. Redshirt freshman WR Hunter Register announced on Twitter today that he is changing postions to be a defensive back.
Obviously this will be more official when announced by the coaches, but I think a tweet from the player himself is a decent indicator that this is probably happening. Hunter’s switch certainly makes sense from a depth perspective and if he’s looking for playing time the opportunities will be there.
Taking a quick look at his recruiting profiles it definitely looks like he played at least a little DB in high school so the new role won’t be completely foreign.
