The 2016 USC football team officially has team captains.
Head coach Clay Helton announced Wednesday that the team voted quarterback Max Browne, offensive tackle Zach Banner, cornerback Adoree’ Jackson and linebacker Michael Hutchings captains for the 2016 season.

Browne, who was recently named the starting quarterback after a fierce battle with redshirt freshman Sam Darnold, has been cited by many players as being a team leader, so his election is no surprise.
