Boise State’s attrition at linebacker continued Monday when the school confirmed that senior linebacker Will Heffner has left the team.
Heffner, a Bishop Kelly High graduate, was not on the team’s roster as the spring semester began. Heffner was initially a walk-on but earned a scholarship before the 2017 season. He played in 10 games in 2018, making two tackles. In the Mountain West championship Dec. 1, he narrowly missed tackling Fresno State running back Ronnie Rivers on the Bulldogs’ game-winning touchdown.
During his playing career, Heffner had seven tackles in 19 games, starting twice in 2017.
