Next summer we need to practice by playing Madden. That way we'll only suffer thumb injuries.

Jordon Byas sat out the final scrimmage with a knee injury. He will have an MRI. David Helton was out with a concussion:

“We don’t know the extent of it,” Cutcliffe said. “He was having an MRI and we’ll see what that brings.”

Duke was also without starting linebacker David Helton, who suffered a concussion in last Friday’s scrimmage.

Reserve safety Taylor Sowell is out for the season after rupturing his Achilles’ tendon. He had surgery on Monday.

Because of all the injuries, Duke had only 65 scholarship position players available Tuesday night.

Jordon Byas underwent surgery for a torn meniscus. At least it wasn't an ACL. He is out for an unknown length of time.
