Texas LB Unit: Hope Amid Change | Texas Longhorns Football News

Published 2 weeks, 6 days ago
Description

Texas football’s linebacker corps is in flux heading into the season, with key losses to the NFL and transfer portal met by a mix of four new transfers and three freshmen. Starters Rasheem Biles — a dynamic portal addition from an All-ACC season — and Ty’Anthony Smith, stepping into a lead role, are expected to anchor a defense needing more pressure and coverage. Behind them, Brad Spence and Justin Cryer bring versatility and experience, while freshmen Tyler Atkinson and Rocky Cummings show early promise. Depth is bolstered by veteran Darius Snow and transfer Markus Boswell, with freshman Kosi Okpala poised for future impact. The unit’s success hinges on staying healthy — if Biles, Smith, and Spence remain on the field, this group could evolve into a defensive strength by season’s end.
