PITTSBURGH -- The No. 18 Pitt Panthers revealed their depth chart ahead of their Week 10 matchup vs. the No. 20 SMU Mustangs.

The biggest change to the depth chart comes with redshirt senior offensive lineman Branson Taylor out for the season. Pitt took him off the left tackle spot and instead listed redshirt junior offensive lineman Terrence Enos Jr. as the starter.

Taylor suffered an injury early in the Week 7 win vs. Cal at home on Oct. 12. Enos, who was his backup, came in for the rest of that game and started in the blowout of Syracuse in Week 9 on Oct. 24, also at home.

Redshirt sophomore Isaiah Montgomery moved from backup at right tackle to left tackle behind Enos. Fellow redshirt sophomore Jackson Brown is now the backup at right tackle, behind fellow redshirt sophomore in starter Ryan Baer.
