I started looking through ACC teams' depth charts. Saw a couple of them have been bitten by the injury bug during and prior to fall camp. Looked around for a thread on CIS and didn't find one. So starting this one because injuries are an inevitable part of football and significantly affect how seasons progress for our opponents and us. Both the ones we face and the ones we compete with to win the Coastal division.
Here are a few updates:
After the North Carolina football team lost two of its most experienced offensive players to injury last week, the Tar Heel coaching staff was left with many questions about its depth chart headed into the season — and few answers.
During Saturday’s practice, the Tar Heels’ running back room took a major blow, as graduate British Brooks suffered a lower-body injury that will sideline him for the entire 2022 season. That news came just a week after fifth-year wide receiver Antoine Green injured his collarbone, a setback causing him to be out for six to 10 weeks.
Brooks and Green’s on-field leadership will not only be missed in their respective position groups, but throughout the entire North Carolina roster.
Virginia Tech is dealing with multiple injuries on offense as it prepares to enter the 2022 season, the team's first under head coach Brent Pry. It was revealed to reporters Wednesday that wide receiver Dallan Wright suffered a season-ending injury and that running back Malachi Thomas will also miss time with an injury. Thomas was considered "week-to-week" by Pry, who did not offer any speculative timeline for a return.
Fields, a 6’4” sophomore receiver who flashed potential a number of times in 2021, broke a bone in his foot and underwent surgery and has an unknown timetable for returning to action. Last season, he caught 11 passes for 172 yards while competing in a stacked receiver room. His biggest game came on the road against Louisville when he caught three balls for 60 yards including a career long 51-yard reception.
If he is to miss the 2022 season that would be a shame considering he could’ve been set for a breakout sophomore campaign. Granted, UVA does have plenty of talent in the receiver room with Dontayvion Wicks, Keytaon Thompson, Billy Kemp IV, and Lavel Davis Jr. set to play ahead of Fields if and when he does return.
Pitt’s football team appears to have dodged a bullet on Saturday.
According to a source who spoke on the condition of anonymity, quarterback Kedon Slovis sustained a “minor” injury during a closed practice at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on the South Side. The source said there is no cause for concern and the injury is not expected to impact Slovis’ chances of winning the starting job for the season opener vs. West Virginia on Sept. 1.

(Obviously, the WF Hartman "injury" plays a role)
