TCU football will be without Derius Davis, Austin Myers today at West Virginia
TCU football will be without more players than expected today at West Virginia.
Offensive lineman Austin Myers, wide receiver Derius Davis and long snapper Antonio Ortiz are among the players who will not play against the Mountaineers.
Myers has started five games this season, including three at left tackle and two at right guard. Kellton Hollins is expected to enter the O-line starting lineup with Myers out. Hollins has not started a game since the 2018 season.
Davis, meanwhile, has emerged as a weapon in the return game. He ranks second in the country, averaging 21.8 yards per return. With JD Spielman out for the season, it’s unclear who will return punts for the Horned Frogs today. Safety Trevon Moehrig has experience as a punt returner.
Ortiz has been a staple as the team’s long snapper the past two seasons. Senior and Fort Worth native Wil Houston is expected to fill that role today.
Kickoff is set for 11 a.m.
