Tyrod Taylor won't be redshirting after all.

Just a short while after Virginia Tech Hokies coach Frank Beamer had redshirted sophomore QB Tyrod Taylor, the decision are reversed this afternoon.

Beamer let the media know on Tuesday that he'd be going with a two-QB system this year, essentially rescinding the redshirt season he had planned for Taylor some time ago. Virginia Tech looked mediocre at best offensively in a loss to East Carolina to open the season and Beamer was quick to act. Taylor will now split time with senior signal-caller Sean Glennon.

“I’m very hopeful Sean is going to have an NFL career, but we like what Tyrod brings to the game,” Beamer said. “We need to be able to run the football. Our offensive line is better, but we’re still a work in progress.”
