Tar Heels announce captains for Week 0 against Florida A&M

Mack Brown and the UNC football program named the three captains for the Week 0 game against Florida A&M on Saturday.

The UNC football program is still prepping for Week 0 as they host Florida A&M this Saturday in Kenan Memorial Stadium. But before the two teams kick off their season, the Tar Heels have set their captains for the game.

Mack Brown and the Tar Heels announced on Tuesday that they will have three captains for the game: Defensive back [autotag]Obi Egbuna[/autotag], linebacker [autotag]Cedric Gray[/autotag] and offensive lineman [autotag]Corey Gaynor[/autotag].

Both Egbuna and Gray saw playing time last year for the Tar Heels while Gaynor joined the team as a transfer from Miami.

The Tar Heels will rotate captains for every game this season and it likely will be based on how the week of practice went for the team and who stood out for them.

Kickoff for Saturday’s game is set for 8:15 p.m. ET and will be broadcasted on the ACC Network.
