In this story:

Virginia Tech's depth chart remains unchanged from last week's depth chart, missing some rumored changes. Bhayshul Tuten remained the starting kick returner, even after Elijah Brooks and Brent Pry had mentioned that Tuten would be removed from that role to help conserve his ability at running back.

In his weekly press conference today though, Brent Pry did formally say that Tuten's position as a kick returner will be evaluated "week-by-week".

Nick Gallo and Jalen Stroman are among some of the players who remain to be inactive from the depth chart.

Here is the Hokies' depth chart ahead of their in-state and out-of-conference opponent, Old Dominion.
