University of Miami starting tight end Brevin Jordan, a key component of the Hurricanes’ offense, sprained his left knee Tuesday and is “day-to-day,’’ UM senior associate athletic director of communications Carter Toole said Thursday after practice.
Jordan, who hyperextended his knee earlier this week, had an MRI on Wednesday, a source said.
Additionally, running back Asa Martin, an Auburn transfer who was named the 2017 Alabama Mr. Football and Class 6A back of the year (rushed for 2,228 yards and 33 TD as senior), has a left leg injury and is out for the spring. Martin will sit out 2019 regardless, per NCAA transfer rules, which is what UM had expected all along, coach Manny Diaz told the media last week.
