West Virginia football roster number changes for 2020
The West Virginia official roster has been updated to reflect changes with the roster numbers.
With fall camp in the rear-view mirror and the focus shifting toward the start of the season players are settling into new uniform numbers.
A number of players will be wearing new uniform numbers this fall as the NCAA introduced new rules to limit duplicate numbers to only two and those players can’t be on the field at the same time.
Also, players will be able to wear the number “0” for the first time and that is set to be taken by redshirt sophomore wide receiver Byrce Wheaton-Ford, after redshirt junior wide receiver Isaiah Esdale was originally set to have it.
The entire list is as follows of those that have undergone number changes:
4 Alonzo Addae, redshirt senior safety switching from 41
7 Josh Chandler-Semedo, junior linebacker switching from 35
8 Vandarius Cowan, redshirt junior bandit linebacker switching from 32
9 Isaiah Esdale, redshirt junior wide receiver switching from 88
0 Bryce Ford-Wheaton, redshirt sophomore wide receiver switching from 83.
2 Noah Guzman, junior safety switching from 19.
9 Jeffery Pooler, redshirt senior defensive end switching from 13
10 Sean Ryan, redshirt junior wide receiver switching from 18
33 Jayvon Thrift, redshirt freshman safety switching from 49
40 Jordan Dempsey, freshman safety switching from 30.
