No. 59 – Not Issued
No. 59 was last worn in 2022 by walk-on O-lineman Will Pliska.
No. 58 – Lance St. Louis, JR
St. Louis has operated in near anonymity during his first two seasons as a Longhorn, and that’s perfectly fine. Long snappers are typically only recognized whenever something goes wrong. The 24-game veteran has been spot on over the course of his last two campaigns after overtaking deep snapping duties early in his freshman year in 2022. He has one career tackle, recorded in 2023.
No. 57 – Christian Rizzi, SR
Rizzi is a fellow deep snapper who made one appearance in 2021 against Rice. He is most likely St. Louis’ backup.
No. 56 – Cameron Williams, JR
One of the largest humans among Kyle Flood‘s group of large humans, the 6-foot-5, 360-pound Williams has seen plenty of action during the course of his two-year career. However, until the 2023 Kansas State game that saw Christian Jones sidelined, most of Williams’ snaps came either on special teams or in garbage time.

During a must-win game for the Longhorns, Williams performed admirably in his first start. He had three penalties to his name but pass blocked efficiently and showed signs of a promising future once Jones’ time on the Forty Acres finally ended.
With Jones off to the Arizona Cardinals, Williams entered the spring looking to separate himself from the pack to be the Longhorns’ next right tackle. By all reports, he has done just that and should be in the first five whenever the Longhorns put on the pads for fall camp.
