LB Taiwan Berryhill

Berryhill is listed as the starter ahead of JB Brown at the weakside linebacker position, but that could be subject to change following Brown’s strong performance in fall camp. Coaches have raved about the Bowling Green transfer for months, who could put Berryhill’s job in jeopardy by mid-season.

Coming off a season where he recorded 46 total tackles — six of which were for loss — he will still find the field one way or another. But if Brown continues to catch the eyes of his teammates, he could start stealing playing time from Berryhill, which is why it is imperative that he show out in the Kansas football season opener.
