Ute running back Devonta’e Henry-Cole is lost for the season, due to injury

Utah running back Devonta’e Henry-Cole will miss the 2018 season with what coach Kyle Whittingham described as a “pre-existing arm injury.”

Henry-Cole can redshirt in 2018, with two years of eligibility remaining. He carried the ball only once in 2016 while using a year’s eligibility, but got 55 carries for 279 yards last season. Henry-Cole was likely to be the Utes' No. 3 running back, behind Zack Moss and Armand Shyne.

In his absence, redshirt freshman TJ Green and freshman Devin Brumfield will compete for carries, and receiver Derrick Vickers will be used as a running back in some packages, offensive coordinator Troy Taylor said.
