Pitt Releases Depth Chart vs. Syracuse

Defensive end Zach Crothers and cornerback Nigel Maynard were removed from this week's depth chart, signaling potential long-term injuries for both of them. Maverick Gracio replaced Crothers' spot behind Jimm Scott and Zion Ferguson is now the third corner behind Tamon Lynum and Shawn Lee Jr.

Crothers was first ruled out two weeks ago against Boston College, and Maynard was a new addition to the ACC availability report last week.
