NC State 2024 Football Redshirt Report Heading into Week 11

Heading into week 11, NC State has played 9 football games. Before the Wolfpack plays Duke this Saturday, here’s a Redshirt Report.

A redshirt season, is a year that doesn’t count against your 4 years of eligibility. If a player plays more than 4 regular season games, the player is no longer eligible to redshirt the season. Every player is allowed 1 redshirt season in their career.

NC State has 3 True Freshman that have already burned their redshirt, playing 4+ games.

True Freshman who have burned their Redshirt

WR Terrell Anderson – 9 games

WR Keenan Jackson – 9 games

QB CJ Bailey – 8 games

The following True Freshman have seen action this year, but haven’t played in 5 games. As a result, they currently still have the ability to redshirt this season.

True Freshmen that haven’t burned their Redshirt

S Ronnie Royal III – 3 games

LB Zane Williams – 3 games

WR Jonathan Paylor – 2 games

NIC Asaad Brown – 2 games

DE Joshua Alexander-Felton – 1 game

WR Tank Boston – 1 game

LB Cannon Lewis – 1 game

OL Robby Martin – 1 game

OL Trent Mitchell – 1 game

RB Duke Scott – 1 game

DE Justin Terrell – 1 game

WR Christian Zachary – 1 game

The following three players aren’t Freshman, but they haven’t used their redshirt season at this point in their collegiate career, and haven’t exceeded 5 games played in 2024.

Non-Freshmen who potentially could Redshirt the year

SO TE Juice Vereen – 4 games

SR DT Chazz Wallace – 4 games

JR LB Wyatt Wright – 1 game

Vereen was listed as sick when he missed LA Tech and Clemson, but returned to play a total of three snaps against Northern Illinois and Wake Forest. He hasn’t seen the field since then. I will say, after the workload he received as a True Freshman, this is an interesting development to watch.

Wallace transferred in this offseason from Colorado, and has been #3 on the depth chart at Nose Tackle all season. He hasn’t played a snap in the past three games.

Wright was a JUCO commit in last years class. With the turnover at Linebacker, I’m sure he thought he might have been a more significant contributor in the Wolfpack’s defense this year. Last week, he played on Special Teams, seeing the field for the first time this season.

It will be interesting to monitor these three over the next three games.
