Projecting Texas A&M's preaseason camp depth chart: Offense

Texas A&M is set to kick off fall camp on Wednesday, which means it’s time to project what the Aggies’ depth chart could look like entering fall camp.

This depth chart is meant to represent how the Aggies may line up on Day 1 of practice. We’re not yet projecting ahead to Week 1 of the season and thus we’ll lean heavily on how Texas A&M finished its spring practice.

Texas A&M Football Preseason Camp Depth Chart Projection

Quarterback

Max Johnson

Haynes King

Conner Weigman

Analysis: The most important position battle for Texas A&M this fall is quarterback. Max Johnson, Conner Weigman and Haynes King all have a legitimate shot to win it. Johnson, who transferred in from LSU following the 2021 season, is the most experienced of the three with 14 starts to his name in his first two seasons with the Tigers. Haynes King was the Aggies’ starting quarterback entering the 2021 season but suffered a season-ending injury in Texas A&M’s second game of the season. The third-year sophomore is the most familiar with the system, and looks to be on track to be 100% healthy by the fall. Then there’s Weigman, the freshman out of Bridgeland (Tex.) High, who was a five-star prospect in the 2022 cycle. Based on spring, Johnson has a bit of an edge on Weigman and King, but King’s earned some rave reviews through the summer and his knowledge of the system could lead to the Longview product winning the job over Johnson and Weigman. Speaking of Weigman, even if the freshman doesn’t win the job in fall camp, he’ll likely have a chance to win it throughout the season.

Running Back

Devon Achane

Amari Daniels

LJ Johnson Jr.

Le’Veon Moss

Earnest Crownover

Analysis: Achane is the starting running back entering the fall and there won’t be much debate about that. Behind him? That will be decided in camp. Sophomore Amari Daniels had a strong spring, while fellow sophomore LJ Johnson was held out due to injury. Those two look to be best-positioned to win the second back spot, but don’t count out freshman Le’Veon Moss. The Louisiana product is well-built, has some serious top-end speed to match. He didn’t enroll until the summer, but if fall camp goes well, he could work his way onto the field early and often.

Wide Receiver

X WR

Evan Stewart

Jalen Preston

Z WR

Chase Lane

Chris Marshall

Devin Price

Slot WR

Ainias Smith

Moose Muhammad III

Yulkeith Brown

Analysis: Freshman wideout Evan Stewart had an outstanding spring, living up to the hype as a five-star prospect and the No. 2 wide receiver in the country coming out of high school. If he continues to impress in the fall, he’s an almost certain bet to win a starting spot. Opposite him, look for veteran Chase Lane to step into a bigger role for the Aggies, but freshman Chris Marshall will challenge for playing time. Elsewhere at outside wide receiver, veterans like Jalen Preston and Devin Price will be part of the rotation. The wild card could be freshman Noah Thomas, who enrolled over the summer, but has some serious top-end speed to pair with his 6-foot-5 frame. At slot, the Aggies’ top returning offensive playmaker Ainias Smith will be the go-to weapon once again this season. Third-year sophomore Moose Muhammad III will likely see some reps out of the slot, but can work himself into the rotation outside as well. Either way, expect Muhammad to see the field often this season.

Tight End

Max Wright

Jake Johnson

Blake Smith

Analysis: Max Wright is the most well-rounded and most experienced veteran in the tight end room, making him an easy selection to be the starter entering fall camp. However, Texas A&M signed three tight ends in the 2022 cycle, including Jake Johnson, the top-ranked tight end in the cycle, who enrolled in the spring. Of the three freshmen, Johnson is the best-positioned to see some early playing time, if not win the starting job, but fellow freshmen Donovan Green and Theo Melin Öhrström, are talented enough to make moves up the depth chart this fall. Both Green and Öhrström enrolled over the summer and will have to hit the ground running to climb up the depth chart, but their talent is undeniable. Keep an eye on veteran Blake Smith, who could put it all together this season.

Offensive Line

Trey Zuhn III

Jordan Spasojevic-Moko

Kam Dewberry

Josh Bankhead

Bryce Foster

Matthew Wykoff

Layden Robinson

Josh Bankhead

Kam Dewberry

Rueben Fatheree II

Luke Williams

Analysis:

All but one starting spot on the offensive line is already decided heading into fall camp, but the question remains: Who will be Texas A&M’s left guard this season? Right now, the early favorite is redshirt freshman Jordan Spasojevic-Moko, with freshman Kam Dewberry and redshirt freshman Josh Bankhead in the mix to fill the open starting spot as well. Elsewhere on the line, Trey Zuhn projects to be the Aggies’ starting tackle opposite returning starter Rueben Fatheree II. On the interior, Bryce Foster returns at center and Layden Robinson returns at right guard.
