Here’s the Kansas Jayhawks’ depth chart for Saturday’s football game against Nevada

The Kansas Jayhawks play their first road game of the season Saturday.

After defeating Illinois 34-23 on Friday, Kansas travels to Reno to face Nevada (0-2).

The Jayhawks open as 28-point favorites over the Wolf Pack. Nevada is currently last in the Mountain West conference.

On Monday, Kansas released its third depth chart of the season. KU Cornerback Cobee Bryant and defensive lineman Austin Booker both received targeting penalties last game, so they will miss the first half of the game as their appeals were denied.
