The University of Toledo loses its bookend tackles in Elijah Nkansah and Brant Weiss and a talented center/guard in Nate Jeppesen from last year’s offensive line.
Along with those three starters from last season, Toledo has a few players still on the mend from injuries suffered last season in Yazeed Atariwa and Chandler Cotterman.
The good news for the Rockets is that they have recruited and developed players well at the position, so there are plenty of options to mix and match.
“We have a lot of guys that are back,” UT coach Jason Candle said.
