Texas A&M releases first two-deep depth chart ahead of Missouri State
Summary

Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko released his first two-deep depth chart on Monday as the team prepares for its season opener against Missouri State this Saturday. The offensive line remains unsettled, with five new starters projected to begin the game despite coach Mike Elko indicating that the lineup remains subject to change based on performance. Positions across the defense feature multiple players competing for starting spots, including a close battle between Dezz Ricks and Rickey Gibson at cornerback. The tight end room also shows uncertainty as Micah Riley, Houston Thomas, and Richie Anderson share an "OR" designation on the chart. While the team integrates 17 transfers alongside returning players, the composition of these units will continue to evolve through the week.
