Last year was a tough season for injuries for the Virginia Tech football team. Two players, Tucker Holloway and Kemari Copeland, suffered season-ending injuries and were key losses for the Hokies.
Holloway was lost before the season even began as he suffered a knee injury in spring camp in 2024, which was a big blow to the Hokies' special teams and wide receiver room. Copeland transferred in from Community College in Iowa and figured to be a big piece of the d-line, but he suffered a season-ending injury with a torn tricep. Both players are looking for huge 2025 seasons and were named to a preseason watch list.
