Football Injury Updates

Just got in from the portion of practice open to us media folks. There is injury news to pass along:

• Defensive end Damario Ambrose wasn’t on the practice field after suffering what appeared to be a knee injury against Tulsa. In addition, Adrian Davis didn’t practice again after missing all of last week (and the Tulsa game) because of a sprained knee. Without those two, Antwain Robinson and Jake Bequette were working with the starters at defensive end. Lavunce Askew and Chris Berezansky were with the second team. And it looked like linebacker Ryan Powers was sticking around with the defensive ends after getting a few snaps there last Saturday.

• Another defensive player, linebacker/defensive back Jerico Nelson, didn’t practice. Nelson hurt his knee against Tulsa and the severity of the injury is unknown. It’s bad enough that he can’t practice, though. Nelson has started seven games at a variety of positions. He has been a good hybrid guy.

• There’s better news on the offensive line. Tackle Ray Dominguez was back on the field and looked like he was moving around pretty well. Dominguez missed last week’s game with an ankle injury. He was replaced by Michael Aguirre, who had been hurt for a couple weeks too. Not sure if Dominguez will get his starting spot back or not. At the very least, it looks like he could be ready to play.
