The Texas A&M Aggies will begin a new era in 2024 as head coach Mike Elko, a former assistant with the Aggies who went on to be the head coach at Duke, takes over in College Station. Paying top dollar for Jimbo Fisher never brought a title, but Texas A&M fans are hoping that Elko rejuvenates the Texas A&M football roster. The 2024 Texas A&M football depth chart is loaded from a talent perspective, but the Aggies are dealing with adversity in camp after running back Rueben Owens went down with a season-ending lower-body injury.

Top Texas A&M Aggies practice storylines
The top Texas A&M football headline from fall camp is the season-ending injury to Rueben Owens. A five-star recruit and the No. 31 overall player in the 2023 signing class, Owens was a major part of the running back rotation as a freshman, recording 494 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns. His talent leaves a void, but A&M still has plenty of experience to lean on.
Amari Daniels and Le'Veon Moss return almost 1,000 combined rushing yards from 2023. Stanford transfer EJ Smith, the son of NFL Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith, is also in the mix. Find out who is standing out in camp at GigEm247 .
Another storyline for Texas A&M football camp is the impact that the college football transfer portal will have on this roster. Dating back to Fisher's time, Texas A&M has been one of the most active programs in the nation in the portal. The Aggies lost 31 players following last season, but added 28.
"Most of that group also were upperclassmen which means that they should be more physically mature than underclassmen who might have been considered to be more talented coming out of high school," Tarpley said. However, A&M must also find replacements for big names such as receiver Evan Stewart and defensive lineman Walter Nolen, who headed to Oregon and Ole Miss, respectively.
