Jekail Middlebrook - Not dressed Saturday Middlebrook (undisclosed) did not dress for Saturday's game against Duke, per Sam Doughton of Middle Tennessee Athletics.

Impact Middlebrook did not dress for Saturday's matchup against the Blue Devils, leaving Middle Tennessee's backfield a little bare with fellow running back Frank Peasant also sidelined with an injury. Middlebrook has struggled to get things going on limited opportunities to start the 2024 season, carrying the ball seven times for just 12 yards through three games, adding 27 yards through the air on three receptions as well. The redshirt freshman running back will hope to make his way back onto the field in time for Saturday's matchup against Memphis.
