Almost a year removed from sustaining a season-ending injury while attempting a tackle against Miami, Chazz Surratt will play in his first game since then when North Carolina faces South Carolina on Saturday in Charlotte.
It'll also be his first game at his new position.
After switching from quarterback to linebacker during the offseason, Surratt figures to play a significant amount of snaps against the Gamecocks. Speaking with reporters on Tuesday, the redshirt junior discussed how he's preparing for that and how he's adjusted to playing linebacker, among other topics.
