Miami Officially Without Important Defensive Starter Against Duke
Miami Hurricanes safety Zechariah Poyser has been listed out for Saturday’s home game against Duke, dealing the No. 7 Hurricanes a notable blow in the secondary as they look to rebound from their first loss of the season.
Poyser, a redshirt junior and the team’s starting free safety, suffered an injury during last week’s 31-24 defeat at Notre Dame and did not return. He had been listed as questionable earlier in the week after coach Mario Cristobal described him as “doing well” following the game.
The absence removes a player who has started all nine contests for the Canes this season.
