I’m sure I’ll be corrected if I’m wrong but I seem to remember Witten playing DL his freshman year. I do remember there was a big decision on Defense or Offense for him.
Maybe I’m old and wrong😎

He played in 11 games and had 1 catch. I think he was experimented at both spots in the summer/fall before landing permanently at TE in fall practice.

Looked into this a bit more and learned that he's not playing on offense this season. Based on their players' receiving stats this year, Southlake Carroll doesn't appear to be utilizing a TE in their passing attack.

That defensive charge is led by senior Van Dorselaer, a Tennessee pledge, who moved to the defense just before the season began. No. 8 on the Star-Telegram’s area top 100 player list, Van Dorselaer has led the team in tackles entering the Timber Creek game with 32.

“I am getting more and more comfortable playing defense,” said Van Dorselaer, who credited his coaches and teammates with helping him with the transition. “Our coaches have been unbelievable in helping me get ready, and the teammates as well.” Van Dorselaer said the best part of playing defense is “hitting people”. “I like the aggressiveness of playing defense,” he said. “On offense, you know what the play is going to be. But on defense, you have to react on the fly. And I like knowing I have a chance to make a play on every play on defense.”

Coach Dodge added that Van Dorselaer has made a very smooth transition to the other side of the ball. “He is such a talented athlete,” said Coach Dodge. “He just keeps getting better and better as the season goes along.”
