Today, I’m going to take a look at the 2019 UCLA Bruins linebackers in our final Fall Preview for this season. The linebackers probably represent the unit where there is the most room for improvement, although that’s due mostly to the fact that the unit was devastated by injuries last season.
The injuries started with the loss of Josh Woods and there were times last season when it seemed like the Bruins were lucky to have 11 defenders on the field because head coach Chip Kelly, defensive coordinator Jerry Azzinaro, linebackers coach Don Pellum and outside linebackers coach Roy Manning seemed to be moving guys from all over the place.
