Texas Tech Unveils 2026 Depth Chart Ahead of Season

Coach Joey McGuire’s roster breakdown highlights returning starters and new additions

Texas Tech head coach Joey McGuire has announced the official depth chart for the upcoming season, giving fans a first look at how the Red Raiders will structure their offense, defense and special‑teams units.

Key Players and Roles

On the offensive side, wide receivers Kenny Johnson, Micah Hudson and slot specialist Cameron Dickey are slated to see significant snaps, while running backs J'Koby Williams and Dickey will also handle off‑kickoff return duties. Stone Harrington is listed as the primary kicker, Will Karoll as the primary punter, Jason Llewellyn as the short snapper for kicks and Rylan Vagana as the deep snapper for punts.

The defensive alignment features boundary ends and outside linebackers, tackles, noseguards, field ends, inside linebackers, cornerbacks and safeties, providing a balanced front that builds on the experience of players who started six or more games last season and those who transferred from other FBS and FCS programs.

Overall, the depth chart offers a comprehensive snapshot of the roster, highlighting the blend of returning starters and new talent that will shape Texas Tech’s strategy on both sides of the ball.
