Longhorns move D.J. Monroe to WR

In a move that just makes sense, Texas has moved running back D.J. Monroe to wide receiver.  Last season Monroe rushed for 326 yards on 48 carries but most of his damage was done on jet sweeps.

Monroe will likely still be used on jet sweeps and in screens but the move gives him more opportunities to touch the ball.
