Kentucky Final Availability Report
Out:
DB DJ Waller Jr.
WR DJ Miller
RB Jamarion Wilcox
DL Nic Smith
WR David Washington Jr.
WR Preston Brown
Ole Miss cornerback Ricky Fletcher is listed as a game-time decision, so the Rebels may have him in the game vs. the ‘Cats.
Ole Miss is once again without its two highly-anticipated Arkansas transfers in cornerback Jaylon Braxton and tight end Luke Hasz. Neither has made his Ole Miss debut, with both missing last week’s season-opening win over Georgia State. Braxton dressed but did not see action, while Hasz remained sidelined.
The list of those who are out also includes Traylon Ray, Dante Core, Terez Davis, and Samari Reed.
As we reported yesterday, there was a positive twist on Friday’s update as offensive lineman Delano Townsend is no longer listed, meaning the UAB transfer is available. With SEC play starting, having another body up front could be huge for the Rebels’ protection and run game.
Freshman wideout Caleb Cunningham was marked as Probable in Friday’s report. He’s not listed on the final availability report, meaning he could see action in the game. The talented playmaker saw limited snaps against Georgia State, but his presence Saturday could give quarterback Austin Simmons another explosive option.
