Redshirting works in different ways depending on which mode you’re playing. For instance, in Road To Glory, the choice doesn’t lie with you. However, in Dynasty mode, you’re the one pulling the strings and deciding which players need redshirting.

You might face this more frequently in four- or five-star colleges that already have a well-equipped depth chart. If that’s the case, you might consider switching to a different college.
