Kyle Whittingham Announces Big Season Ending Injury Update for Utah

Undefeated through four games, Utah Utes head coach Kyle Whittingham hasn’t been to Morgantown, West Virginia, before, making Saturday’s trip out east to take on the Mountaineers a first for the 65-year-old Cali native. September 28, which could change because he will be missing his dynamic freshman starter at slot this time, for the whole calendar.

Coach Whittingham revealed that his promising freshman tight end is done for the year, a gut punch for the Utes. Hunter Andrews, the 6’3”, 235lbs out of Magnolia, had already flashed plenty of upside with 10 catches for 65 yards, showing poise and polish beyond his years. Now, that growth hits pause.

Hunter Andrews is out for the season, Kyle Whittingham said.

As if that wasn’t enough, Whittingham hinted that quarterback Devon Dampier may have been playing banged-up against Texas Tech. Talk about a double whammy.
