Opted-Out UNC Football Players Have Teammates' Full Support
Posted Aug 8, 2020
Three UNC football players opted out of the 2020 season, the school announced Friday, and they have the support of their teammates. Senior safety D.J. Ford, junior cornerback Bryce Watts, and sophomore cornerback Javon Terry will remain on scholarship, but they will not play this season. Is there friction among their teammates? Not a chance.
