Impact Lagway entered the Week 1 contest following Graham Mertz's (concussion) departure, and while Mertz has made some progress in the concussion protocol, it's seemingly growing increasingly unlikely he'll be available for Saturday's contest. Thus, Lagway sits atop the team's released depth chart and appears slated to take the reins under center for at least one week. If he plays well enough, it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility for Lagway to challenge Mertz for the starting job when SEC play opens in Week 3 versus Texas A&M.
