Sports Illustrated • • sports
Key Points:
- BYU released its initial injury report ahead of Saturday's game against Baylor, with key running back LJ Martin listed as "probable" but his effectiveness remains uncertain after limited touches against Utah.
- Linebacker Isaiah Glasker is "questionable" with a 50% chance to play, while cornerback Evan Johnson and tight end Roger Saleapaga are "doubtful" for the game, having missed the previous matchup against Utah.
- In the absence of Saleapaga and Johnson, tight end Walker Lyons and cornerback Jayven Williams have stepped up with strong performances, and cornerback Therrian Alexander III is expected to play after recovering from injury.
- Special teams contributor and tight end Will Zundel is out due to injury and will miss the Baylor game.
- Baylor's injury report lists six players, five of whom have not played this season, indicating strong overall health; starting defensive lineman Devonte Tezino remains sidelined since week two, but Baylor's defensive line remains a formidable challenge.
