This Saturday didn’t feel nearly as chaotic as last week when some teams were missing large groupings of players.

These updates are a mix of inactives, QB starters, and some simple injury updates (but not all). Look for a separate post later today (Sunday) with in-depth Saturday injury news.

(continually updated)

On Wednesday the Big Ten revealed it will return the weekend of October 23-24 with an 8 game schedule with a 9th game for each team based on finish. Not too long after that announcement came the news that Michigan QB Dylan McCaffrey plans to opt out and transfer, a sign that QB Joe Milton has won the starting job. Michigan WR Nico Collins also reportedly will opt out.

The big news on Thursday was South Carolina QB Collin Hill (Colorado State transfer) being named the starter over returner Ryan Hilinski.

List of Injuries & Updates from September 16-18:

QBs:

• Collin Hill, South Carolina – named starter over Ryan Hilinski

Saturday basically felt pretty chaotic as a number of teams had extensive lists of players who were inactive/not dressed, then add in West Virginia who suspended 11 players. Most of the updates in this post are those who were inactive, with a few exceptions. Most teams did not state why players did not play (COVID/injury/etc), they either put out a list or reporters saw who wasn’t there/wasn’t dressed out.

Not every skill position player who was inactive is listed, I’ve tried to focus the list in a bit to represent those who may have some fantasy significance, although that is challenging prior to the first game of the season for many teams. Look for a separate post later today (Sunday) with Saturday injury news.

In non game-news, it sounds like QB KJ Costello is the likely starter at Mississippi State, and former QB Garrett Shrader has begun getting work at WR.

List of Updates from September 12:

QBs:

• KJ Costello, Mississippi State – would be the starter if team played today
• Cade Fortin, South Florida – not in warmups
• Brady McBride, Texas State – out, COVID protocols
• Grayson McCall, Coastal Carolina – got the surprising start after either Fred Payton or Bryce Carpenter were expected to get the nod. I saw Payton playing on special teams, so I know McCall wasn’t getting the start solely because of unavailability of other options.
• Garrett Shrader, Mississippi State – has been practicing a slot WR
• Justin Tomlin, Georgia Southern – inactive

RBs: The most notable RBs who were inactive Saturday were Jahmyr Gibbs (Ga Tech), Wesley Kennedy (Ga Southern), Marcel Murray (Arkansas State – out again), and TJ Pledger (Oklahoma)

• Isaiah Azubuike, Arkansas State – out
• Quinton Cooley, Wake Forest – inactive
• Michel Dukes, Clemson – out today
• Jahmyr Gibbs, Georgia Tech – warmed up but then didn’t dress
• Gerald Green, Georgia Southern – inactive
• Wesley Kennedy, Georgia Southern – inactive
• Chez Mellusi, Clemson – out today
• Marcel Murray, Arkansas State – out today
• TJ Pledger, Oklahoma – inactive
• Xavier White, Texas Tech – not dressed

WRs & TEs: The most notable receivers out today were Dahu Green (Arkansas State), Taysir Mack (Pitt), Obi Obialo (Oklahoma), Stephon Robinson (Kansas) & TJ Simmons (West Virginia), although you could argue a couple other receivers could also be listed.

• Darion Anderson, Georgia Southern – inactive
• TE TJ Banks, West Virginia – suspended
• Dexter Carter, Georgia Southern – inactive
• Leroy Deshazor, Arkansas State – out
• Zack Dobson, West Virginia – suspended
• Isaiah Esdale, West Virginia – suspended
• Coye Fairman, Memphis – opts out of season
