College Football Injury Report: Latest Updates on Malachi Toney, Kewan Lacy and More

Ohio State, Oregon and UCLA all start backup quarterbacks Saturday, while LJ Martin’s return and Maddux Madsen’s knee loom over two other ranked games.

Miami wide receiver Malachi Toney’s ankle surgery headlines the Week 10 college football injury report, and the Hurricanes star joins Ole Miss running back Kewan Lacy and Ohio State quarterback Julian Sayin among the stars missing games with College Football Playoff stakes.

Toney suffered a high ankle sprain in Wednesday’s practice and will have surgery that’s expected to sideline him four to six weeks, which takes the nation’s No. 2 receiver in catches out of No. 1 Miami’s trip to No. 4 Notre Dame.
