MADISON (WXOW) -- The Wisconsin football team released its two-deep depth chart on Monday afternoon. Much of the first stringers were as expected, but Waunakee freshman walk-on kicker Jack Russell is listed as the starting field goal kicker. Russell was competing with sophomore Kyle French, who started the first four games of last season, but French has struggled in camp and especially in last Saturday's scrimmage. The full depth chart is listed below.
