- Jay Arrington, who was on the roster in the spring, a transfer from Averett where he was the teams starting long snapper and also played on the defensive line, is no longer on the roster. Tay Shosola, a 5’11” wide receiver from Limestone. was also added to the roster in the spring but is no longer listed.
