Jacob Zeno - DNP against Huskies Zeno (shoulder) did not play in UAB's 31-23 loss to UConn on Saturday.
Impact Zeno was once again held out of Saturday's contest, marking his fifth consecutive missed game for the Blazers while dealing with a shoulder injury. The senior quarterback had struggled through the first four games of the season, throwing for 819 yards and six touchdowns to five interceptions, and though fellow signal-caller Jalen Kitna has had turnover issues in his time filling in, there could be a position controversy when and if Zeno is able to return this season. Zeno's next opportunity to make his return will come when the Blazers travel to face Memphis this coming Saturday.

Kam Shanks - 80 yards in loss Shanks caught 5 of 11 targets for 50 yards during Saturday's 31-23 defeat against Connecticut.
Impact Shanks broke out last week versus Tulsa as he scored four touchdowns in the blowout win. Although he did not come even close to that production versus UConn, he proved to still be very involved in the offense. He had 11 targets for the third time in his last four games and received two carries once again, this time taking those for a season-high 30 yards. Shanks' high volume combined with his explosive ceiling makes him a valuable option down the stretch.

Amare Thomas - Solid without touchdown Thomas hauled in 6 of 11 targets for 88 yards during Saturday's 31-23 loss to Connecticut.
Impact Thomas was unable to haul in a touchdown Saturday but he still had a very productive day. He saw 11 targets, his fifth straight game with nine or more, and went for over 80 yards for the fourth time in his last five games. He has proven to have both a high floor and a high ceiling, making him a very valuable asset during the final stretch of the season.

Lee Beebe Jr. - Productive in Saturday's loss Beebe tallied 17 carries for 115 yards and one touchdown and gathered in 6 of 7 targets for 21 yards during Saturday's 31-23 loss to Connecticut.
Impact Beebe had arguably his best game of the season Saturday as he ran for over 100 yards for the first time this season, totaling 136 yards from scrimmage on 23 touches. He also scored a 25-yard touchdown at the end of the second quarter. His game was by no means perfect though as he lost a fumble with less than five minutes left in the fourth quarter and his team down just one point. He faces a more difficult matchup Saturday at Memphis.

Jalen Kitna - Inefficient in Saturday's loss Kitna completed 22 of 42 passes for 233 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 31-23 defeat to Connecticut. He also had eight rushes for -13 yards.
Impact Just one week after throwing for 404 yards and six touchdowns versus Tulsa, Kitna came back down to earth Saturday. He completed just over 50 percent of his passes for a season-low 233 yards. He also turned the ball over three times (two interceptions and a lost fumble), his fourth time in five starts with multiple turnovers. He and the Blazers were up 23-10 in the second half and blew the game, in part due to Kitna's turnovers. He has a decent chance to bounce back Saturday at Memphis.
