Purdue RB Devin Mockobee will miss the rest of this season after season-ending ankle surgery

Purdue running back Devin Mockobee will miss the rest of his final college season after undergoing ankle surgery late last week, coach Barry Odom has announced

NOVEMBER 3 • Associated Press

College career finished Mockobee (ankle) is out for the remainder of Purdue's 2025 season, Nathan Baird of IndyStarSports reports.

Impact Mockobee underwent ankle surgery Friday, and the procedure requires so much time to recover that he must sit out the remainder of Purdue's 2025 season. Unfortunately for him, it also includes his last year of collegiate eligibility, which has been used considering he doubled more than the minimum four games. In eight, Mockobee logged 125 rushing attempts for 521 yards and four touchdowns. He also recorded 18 receptions (on 20 targets) for 215 yards and a receiving TD. For 2026, Mockobee's focus will have to shift towards either pro football or another subject.

Won't suit up Saturday Mockobee will not play in Saturday's game versus Michigan, per the Big Ten availability report.

Impact Mockobee is coming off one of his better efforts of the season, registering 91 rushing yards on 16 carries, but he won't have an opportunity to follow that up Saturday. The exact reason for his absence is unclear, but a return next week wouldn't invite a very promising fantasy outlook with Ohio State next on the schedule.

Logs 109 yards of total offense Mockobee compiled 16 rushes for 91 yards and reeled in all two targets for 18 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-24 defeat to Rutgers.

Stifled against Northwestern Mockobee had seven carries for 28 yards and reeled in all two targets for 52 yards during Saturday's 19-0 loss against Northwestern.

Impact Mockobee's totals usually mirror Purdue's final results, but the loss of Ryan Browne (shoulder) took the wind out of the offense's sails. Although generally dependable, Mockobee struggled against Notre Dame's imposing defense last month and also had limited success against a weaker Northwestern unit. He may be able to give his numbers a jumpstart against Rutgers this weekend.

Comes close to century mark in loss Mockobee recorded 21 carries for 98 yards and gathered in 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 27-20 defeat to Minnesota.

Struggles in loss Mockobee had 12 carries for 45 yards and gathered in 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 33-17 loss versus USC.

Impact Mockabee didn't find the end zone and only recorded 45 yards against USC's defense. It's a significant regression from his earlier results, but it's also an indicator that his totals against weaker opponents might not be a true sign of Mockabee's viability as a fantasy target. He'll remain Purdue's top back, but elite production is no longer a guarantee.

Posts diverse line in victory Mockobee compiled 14 carries for 59 yards and one touchdown and hauled in all two targets for 45 yards during Saturday's 31-0 victory against Ball State.

Impact Mockobee got the job done on the ground and also shined in the passing game during Saturday's blowout. Now in his fourth year with Purdue, Mockobee has excelled with solid numbers every season. He led all rushers Saturday, and that should be a repeated trend throughout the 2025 campaign. QB Ryan Browne's standout play, combined with Mockobee's reliability, bode well for the Boilermakers' fortunes.
