Wake Forest’s passing attack suffered a big blow this week as promising redshirt junior wide receiver Jared Crump suffered what appears to be a serious injury during practice on Tuesday.

The injury remains unspecified, but Demon Deacons head coach Dave Clawson said “we're not optimistic” in reference to him playing this year.
