New spots

-

Randy Ramsey and Michael Taylor, who were listed as defensive ends last season, will work in the outside “Hog” linebacker position in the new base 3-4 alignment. Karl Roesler, a defensive end and linebacker last season, will work both spots, but he’s listed as a defensive lineman.

T.J. Hammonds, a 5-10, 197-pounder, who rushed for 88 yards and a touchdown as the fourth-team running back last season, will get a look as a slot receiver in the spring with the idea he could play both positions.

Fullback Hayden Johnson, a 6-3, 248-pound sophomore from Columbia, Mo., will cross train as a tight end during the spring, with junior Kendrick Jackson solidified as the lead fullback, backed by redshirt freshman Justice Hobbs.

Jake Hall, a 6-5, 266-pound junior from Springdale Har-Ber, has moved back to the defensive line, the position at which he signed with the Hogs before switching to tight end and the offensive line.

Damani Carter, a 6-0, 241-pound sophomore from Fayettevil­le, is now listed at linebacker after moving from fullback.
