Michigan State football got some bad injury news on Friday afternoon as it was reported that starting safety Nikai Martinez would be out for a second straight game to start the season.
The absence of Martinez will surely be felt by the Michigan State secondary which will be going up against a team that passed the ball for 458 yards and five touchdowns in the season opener against Fordham. Obviously that's not the toughest of opponents, but any time you have over 400 passing yards, you're doing something right offensively.
Shortly after the Martinez news broke, Pete Thamel shared a positive injury update regarding Michigan State's kicking situation.
