Ruled out Saturday
Cox (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game versus Duke.
Impact
Cox will miss Saturday's rivalry game due to an undisclosed injury. He's only caught four passes so far this season, so his absence won't make much of an impact on the game. His next chance to play is next Saturday at NC State in the regular season finale.

Questionable against Duke
Cox (undisclosed) has been listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against Duke.

Good to go Saturday
Cox is off the injury report ahead of Saturday's game versus Stanford.
Impact
Cox, who was listed as probable in the lead-up to Saturday's contest, will be available Saturday. He's only caught four passes this season so he's not expected to make much of an impact even though he's healthy.

Gets probable tag
Cox is probable for Saturday's game against Stanford.
Impact
Cox played a season-high 54 snaps last week but did not see a target. He should remain involved as a blocker but has little involvement as a pass-catcher.

Active against Tigers
Cox (undisclosed) is healthy for Saturday's game against Clemson.
Impact

Deemed probable
Cox (undisclosed) is probable for North Carolina's clash with Clemson.
Impact
Cox has yet to record a catch this season, as he's buried on the Tar Heels' depth chart. Thus, whether or not he's available should have little bearing on North Carolina's offense.

Transfers to North Carolina
Cox will transfer to North Carolina, Rivals.com reports.
Impact
Cox reeled in just one catch for nine yards in two seasons at South Carolina. The tight end will have three years of eligibility remaining with the Tar Heels, where he'll look to factor into the tight end room more prominently than he did with the Gamecocks.
