The first major injury of the 2023 Louisville football season is upon us, with head coach Jeff Brohm announcing Saturday morning that junior safety MJ Griffin will “probably” miss the entire year with a lower leg injury.
Griffin, who transferred to U of L from Temple, played few snaps in the first five games of last season due to injury before starting the final eight. His insertion into the starting lineup directly correlated with an uptick in production from the defense overall.
Griffin finished his first year as a Cardinal with 45 tackles and a pair of interceptions.
