A lot of changes on the defensive back seven in this week’s depth chart.

Wake Forest released their depth chart for their contest at Louisville. Of note, many changes were present, especially on the defensive back end.

Of note, Luke Masterson is now listed as the starting “BUCK” linebacker. In addition, Ryan Smenda Jr. is back on the depth chart.

After being omitted in last week’s depth chart, Nasir Greer makes a return as the primary backup at strong safety. Zion Keith earns the backup spot behind Amari Henderson and Ja’Sir Taylor looks to be back to a backup role after sharing a starting spot with Henderson for a couple of weeks.

While the depth chart is a good official document to help teams and fans see who are likely to play, there are players who aren’t listed and still expected to contribute. After that player was Greer as he was mentioned by name as someone who would play, this week it is redshirt freshman Mike Allen at defensive end.

All in all, it’s been tough to get excited for Wake Forest football as the team has struggled to put together a good game since their contest against Rice. To pick up the mood, here’s a very interesting stat that might perk up interest for the rest of the way.
