Austyn Dendy News, Rumors, Updates - Bowling Green Falcons

Deemed unavailable for Saturday Dendy will not play in Saturday's matchup versus Western Michigan, per the MAC availability report.

Impact Dendy didn't carry an injury tag ahead of the game and hasn't missed a matchup this season, so his pop-up inactive status comes as a bit of a surprise. The starting running back's next chance to see the field will be next Saturday against Kent State. His absence should pave the way for Nakai Amachree to get an elevated role.
