WR/QB playing LG?

My WR gave up a sack on this play which caused me to rewind and see how. Turns out he was lined up at LG for some reason. On the subsequent plays a QB is there. I checked my offensive depth chart and overrides for errors and those players aren't listed anywhere on the OL.

If it is not a bug, I'm wondering if all players at LG were fatigued (as it was near the end of the game) and the AI selected the next best for the play. Even though the WR is a 60 future rated for that position, I would think it would have selected another OL instead of a WR or QB.

Thanks for adding that. I was thinking along those lines but I didn't want to reply to my own post a second time right away.

He's is going to add the desired weight of a players in to the actual weights....that would solve these odd subs when dealing with short depth charts where the AI overrides.

Is this Pre Season? If so, this will happen. Just not enough Depth to cover all the Substitutions in Pre Season.

Alternatively you could Keep Starters In, but that risks them getting injured.
