Texas releases 2022 spring football roster

In 17 days, the Texas Longhorns start the second spring practice under head coach Steve Sarkisian, culminating in the annual Orange-White game on April 24. On Saturday, the school released the spring roster, providing updates on numbers and weights, in addition to several position changes.

The highlights:

• Senior linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is listed as two pounds lighter than last season at 221 pounds. The goal presumably remains for him to add strength during the rest of the offseason to improve his play between the tackles.

• Early enrollee edge Justice Finkley is wearing No. 1 and listed at 6’2, 260 pounds.
• Sophomore transfer quarterback Quinn Ewers is wearing No. 3.

• Early enrollee quarterback Maalik Murphy is wearing No. 6 and listed at 6’5.

• Sophomore Morice Blackwell moved from linebacker to defensive back after dropping from 203 pounds to 189 pounds.
• Senior Jett Bush dropped seven pounds to 229 pounds and is listed at linebacker. He was listed at the same position last season despite playing on the edge — it may be that he’s moved to a position like Sam linebacker.
• Sophomore defensive tackle Vernon Broughton is down 15 pounds to 291 pounds.
• Senior linebacker Luke Brockermeyer is down 12 pounds to 213 pounds while rehabbing from his ACL tear.

• Junior offensive lineman Tyler Johnson is no longer listed on the roster after three disappointing seasons. He was ranked as the No. 58 player nationally in the 2019 recruiting class, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings, and the No. 8 offensive tackle, but fell out of favor with the new coaching staff last season.
• Junior offensive lineman Isaiah Hookfin is down to 263 pounds from 299 pounds as he recovers from multiple injuries suffered in a motorcycle accident in early December. He said he fractured eight ribs, broke his collarbone and forearm, and lacerated his spleen.
