Cole Mosier will miss the 2017 UK football season after the left tackle suffered a torn ACL in his right knee during the Cats’ first preseason scrimmage. The injury will end his senior season and his career; UK announced in a press release he is not eligible for a sixth season.
A former walk-on from Walton, Ky., Mosier earned a scholarship after becoming the No. 1 left tackle as a redshirt freshman. Last season he started in ten of UK’s 13 games, sidelined for three after an injury at Florida.
In Mosier’s absence Stephen Johnson will rely on true sophomore Landon Young to protect his blind side.
