Quarterbacks Matt Johns, Kurt Benkert taking the lead for Virginia football’s offseason workouts

No news on who may be in the lead to start, but both working hard to connect with teammates in new offensive system

Mike Barber of the Richmond Times-Dispatch had an update from Virginia’s offseason workouts, and the leadership roles that incumbent Matt Johns and new transfer Kurt Benkert have taken on.

For now, both players are getting in their offseason work with their U.Va. teammates. Both have already graduated and began graduate school classes Monday, pursuing master’s degrees in higher education.

Next week, team practices begin, under the supervision of the Cavaliers’ strength coach.
