In the aftermath of an offseason exodus that saw more than half of the Texas Longhorns 2018 starters graduate or depart for the NFL, the coaching staff had plenty of shoes to fill this spring. Among the numerous roles now requiring a fresh face is at field cornerback, which Davante Davis manned last season en route to All-Big 12 honorable mention recognition.
After beginning the spring as a backup to redshirt sophomore Kobe Boyce, sophomore Jalen Green has seemingly taken control of the field corner position down the stretch, earning the bulk of the first-team reps opposite of fellow true sophomore Anthony Cook.
