Wisconsin football releases first depth chart: takeaways and observations

The biggest takeaways from the Wisconsin football team's first offensive and defensive two-deep of the 2025 season.

The wait is over! Wisconsin football has released its first depth chart of 2025 ahead of Thursday's opener against Miami (OH), and it's full of surprises. From a "kitchen sink" approach on defense to a historical first for the running back room, an initial look at the two-deep reveals a lot about Luke Fickell's plans for 2025.

First, we analyze the significant number of "OR" designations on the defensive front. It might be the key to unlocking the upside of the new talent on the defense. On a team that finished last in FBS in tackles for loss a season ago, the plethora of options is a sight for sore eyes.

Then, does offensive coordinator Jeff Grimes see a budding star in Dilin Jones? With a veteran-laden offensive line, willing blockers throughout the roster, and a historic placement atop the preseason depth chart, the Badgers look prepared to run the dang ball.
