Ole Miss releases first depth chart of 2020 season ahead of Saturday’s game with Gators
OXFORD, Miss. — Ole Miss football released its first depth chart of the 2020 season Monday, ahead of the Rebels’ season-opener against No. 5 Florida this Saturday. The question on everyone’s mind — who will be the starting QB — is still unanswered, with sophomores Matt Corral and John Rhys Plumlee listed with an “or” between their names as first-team quarterback.

During head coach Lane Kiffin’s Monday Zoom meeting with media, he indicated he expects both QBs to play against the Gators.
Kiffin on Plumlee's role if he's not starting QB: "I don't know how I can really answer that. One of them is going to start. There's a good chance both of them (Plumlee and Corral) will play."
