Minnesota head coach P.J. announced that backup quarterback Demry Croft is taking a break from the Gophers and won’t be with the team against Middle Tennessee State because of personal reasons.
At this point, it’s unclear who the backup will be. The next two players on the depth chart are redshirt freshman Seth Green and true freshman Tanner Morgan. Conor Rhoda was announced as the Gophers starting QB yesterday following his performance in the Oregon State game.
