  Memphis posted its updated football roster for the season and several names were missing. Junior offensive lineman Devontae Dobbs, freshman running back JP Martin and sophomore wide receiver Khi Mathieu are not listed on the roster. A school athletics spokesperson declined comment and referred to coach Ryan Silverfield's next availability Wednesday to open preseason practice. Dobbs was one of several high-profile transfers who arrived after the 2020 season. He arrived from Michigan State and played in five games last season. He participated in spring practice. Dobbs was a four-star recruit coming out of high school in 2019. - Memphis Commercial Appeal

  07/29/22 - Quindell JohnsonrSr/2023, Memphis, 6-0, 201 (DS#14 FS) + More +

  Quindell Johnson flirted with the NFL Draft but the two-time All-AAC second team selection returns for a final year as possibly the Tigers' best overall player. It's a good sign for a team that was 103rd nationally in passing yards allowed last season and has been among the nation's bottom 30 teams in that category four of the last five seasons. Johnson's been an intelligent, instinctive playmaker since his freshman year (six career interceptions, 104 tackles last season). He's also durable with no missed games in three seasons and will help lead a defense that returns three starters in the secondary. If the Tigers' pass defense improves, Johnson must be at the center of it. A big season won't just help his NFL stock, it could help the defense take significant steps forward under first-year coordinator Matt Barnes. - Memphis Commercial Appeal

  07/29/22 - Seth HeniganSr/2025, Memphis, 6-3, 215 (DS#13 QB) + More +

  Seth Henigan returns after his Freshman All-American season as the established leader of the Tigers' offense. All eyes are on him to take a bigger leap in his second year. Henigan added more weight since last season to get stronger. He's a better student of the offense, which won't change much under offensive coordinator Tim Cramsey. But with fewer proven skill position players around him, Memphis needs him healthy to carry a greater burden on offense. The Tigers saw last season how quarterback injuries can affect things. Grant Gunnell's preseason injury opened the door for Henigan and when Henigan was out against UCF with a shoulder injury, the offense sputtered. Until playmakers emerge, the offense revolves around Henigan and his health is as critical as his on-field growth. - Memphis Commercial Appeal

  07/17/22 - Brendon LewisrSr/2026, Memphis, 6-2, 210 (DS#26 QB) + More +

  With the season opener still seven weeks away, Colorado head football coach Karl Dorrell isn't naming a starting quarterback yet. He made it clear Wednesday, however, that it's Brendon Lewis' job to lose. Speaking at a media roundtable at Colorado National Golf Club, Dorrell said the competition to start will be ongoing but, "B-Lew is in the driver's seat. "He was our starter a year ago. We can't discredit that. I mean, someone's gonna have to beat him out. That's the flat truth." Rick George says remaining Pac-12 members 'staying aligned' amid conference realignment Lewis, now a sophomore, started all 12 games in 2021, but struggled at times. He was 11th in the Pac-12 in passer rating (118.82), and 12th in completion percentage (58.0) and passing yards per game (128.3).

Overall, he threw for 1,540 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also threw just three interceptions - the lowest total among the starters in the conference. Lewis displayed his toughness, fighting through a year in which the offensive line struggled. He was sacked 31 times but still ran for 188 yards and two touchdowns. "He knows he's got a job to hang on to and he knows he's got to continue to get better," Dorrell said. "And he knows that there's people nipping at his heels, so it's great competition, but he's in the driver's seat." - Daily Camera

  07/15/22 - Seth HeniganSr/2025, Memphis, 6-3, 215 (DS#13 QB) + More +

  Seth Henigan's debut season at Memphis went smoother than expected. He made history as the first true freshman quarterback to start a Tigers season opener, then became a freshman all-American. Henigan enters preseason camp of year two as the no-doubt starter. After throwing for 3,322 yards - second-most by a Tigers quarterback in his first season - and 25 touchdowns with eight interceptions, Henigan leads an offense with new coordinator Tim Cramsey that faces more personnel questions than recent seasons. Who will be his No. 1 receiving target? Can the run game get back to its 2017-19 form? With four returning starters on the offensive line, how much better can Henigan get? Ask coach Ryan Silverfield, and there's confidence Henigan has yet to reach his ceiling. "Going into a second year of a quarterback, whether it's a rookie in the NFL or freshman to sophomore year, the game's going to slow down a little bit more," Silverfield said on 92.9 FM ESPN Friday. "(Seth's) not thinking about the play concept ... or processing in your mind as a play occurs. Now hopefully, it just naturally happens where it's just a feel for it, that he's been in those situations before." - Memphis Commercial Appeal

  07/13/22 - Omarion CooperrSr/2026, Memphis, 6-0, 195 (DS#84 CB) + More +

  Omarion "Duke" Cooper and Kevin Knowles II, two cornerbacks in FSU's 2021 recruiting class, impressed as true freshmen last season. Azareye'h Thomas and Sam McCall immediately held their own as early-enrolled freshmen cornerbacks in the spring. Cooper gradually worked his way into the rotation last season before breaking out and starting the final three games at boundary cornerback. He most notably tallied an interception and four pass breakups in the win over Miami, making him the nation's first true freshman to reach both of those marks in a game since Virginia Tech's Kendall Fuller in 2013.

Knowles started seven of the final eight games at nickel cornerback after Jammie Robinson left the position to play safety. By establishing himself as a serviceable nickel, Knowles helped keep Robinson's position switch from being temporary. Robinson claimed first-team All-ACC honors last season. After the season, Cooper and Knowles shared Devaughn Darling Defensive Freshman of the Year honors from the Seminoles. In eight games, Cooper accumulated 16 tackles, two interceptions and four pass breakups. Knowles posted 26 tackles, 1.5 tackles for a loss and two pass breakups across 12 games. - Times Union
