Carter Jones - Returns to action Week 4 Jones (head) was 18-for-30 passing for 224 yards during Saturday's 36-33 overtime loss against Air Force. He also had eight rushes for negative five yards.

Impact Even though Jones' head injury was a cause for concern, he returned to the game and helped Nevada do just enough to defeat the Air Force with a season-high 18 completions and 224 passing yards. This season, he has 42 completions for 572 yards and two touchdowns, though his turnover rate can use some cleaning up going into the remainder of conference play.

Dominic Kelley - Totals 87 yards Saturday Kelley posted 13 rushes for 60 yards and gathered in 3 of 4 targets for 27 yards during Saturday's 36-33 overtime loss against Air Force.

Impact It was another decently productive outing for Kelley, who's seen double-digit carries in all four games this season. Overall, the sophomore's rushed for 341 yards with three touchdowns on 54 attempts this year.

Herschel Turner - Big day in OT loss Turner had 11 carries for 111 yards and two touchdowns and gathered in his only target for 25 yards during Saturday's 36-33 overtime defeat versus Air Force.

Impact Turner certainly did a lot with limited volume Saturday. Despite being out-carried 13-to-11 by Dominic Kelley, Turner managed to surpass 100 yards for the first time this year while punching in a pair of touchdowns, including a 57-yard score that tied the game late in the fourth quarter. Through four games, Turner's totaled 234 yards and three touchdowns on 39 carries. He's also added 76 yards on six receptions.

Carter Jones - Exits with head injury Jones exited Saturday's game against Air Force due to a head injury in the third quarter, according to Grant Kiefer of KOLO8.

Impact Jones left the game for Nevada after hitting his head on the ground while being tackled in the third quarter, and it's uncertain whether he'll return to action. AJ Bianco took his place and scored a rushing touchdown as his replacement, though him and Luke Duncan should see the remaining snaps under center if Jones doesn't return.

Dominic Kelley - Leads ground attack again Kelley compiled 13 carries for 45 yards and a touchdown and gathered in 2 of 4 targets for 12 yards during Saturday's 27-20 loss versus Middle Tennessee State.

Impact Kelley's now led Nevada in rushing in back-to-back weeks -- he out-carried Herschel Turner 13-to-8 on Saturday. While the Wolf Pack appear set on using both backs, Kelley certainly appears to be the "1A" option. The sophomore's rushed for 281 yards and three touchdowns on 41 carries through three games this season.

Carter Jones - Expected to return Saturday Jones (arm) is expected to play against Middle Tennessee State on Saturday, per NevadaSportsNet.com.

Impact Jones was spotted getting early warmups in with fellow quarterbacks, and a previous report mentioned that head coach Jeff Choate was confident that he could return Saturday. The signal-caller missed Week 2 due to the arm injury but has seemingly recovered well and should draw the start under center for Nevada.

SEPTEMBER 19 • ROTOWIRE

Donnie Cheers - Sees eight targets Saturday Cheers hauled in 4 of 8 targets for 39 yards during Saturday's 20-7 defeat to Montana State.

Impact While he didn't put up huge numbers Saturday, Cheers did stand out as Nevada's go-to receiver, leading the team in targets. Through two games, Cheers has totaled five receptions on 11 targets for 71 yards and a touchdown while adding 38 rushing yards and another score on four carries.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Marshaun Brown - Finds end zone in loss Brown reeled in all three targets for 44 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 20-7 defeat to Montana State.

Impact Brown finished the day as Nevada's leading receiver, after tallying just one reception in Week 1. The senior also accounted for the Wolf Pack's lone touchdown in the loss with his 28-yard grab in the fourth quarter. In eight games last season, Brown totaled 16 receptions (on 29 targets) for 164 yards and a touchdown.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Dominic Kelley - Leads backfield Saturday Kelley posted 17 rushes for 84 yards and hauled in 1 of 3 targets for nine yards during Saturday's 20-7 loss against Montana State.

Impact Kelley seemed to take over as Nevada's top running back Saturday, as he out-carried Herschel Turner 17-to-9. Through two games, the sophomore Kelley has averaged 8.4 yards per carry for 236 yards overall and two touchdowns.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Luke Duncan - Struggles in Nevada debut Duncan was 7-for-16 passing for 51 yards and two interceptions during Saturday's 20-7 defeat versus Montana State.

Impact Duncan split snaps with AJ Bianco on Saturday, with Carter Jones (arm) unavailable. It didn't go well for Duncan, a senior transfer from UCLA, as he completed just 43.8 percent of his passes while throwing a pair of second-quarter interceptions. Duncan will likely retreat to a backup role with Jones expected to return in Week 3.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

AJ Bianco - Splits snaps vs. Montana State Bianco was 12-for-20 passing for 116 yards, one touchdown and an interception during Saturday's 20-7 defeat to Montana State. He also had six rushes for 38 yards.

Impact With Carter Jones (arm) unavailable Saturday, Bianco shared quarterback duties with Luke Duncan. Bianco was the better of the two, throwing for Nevada's lone touchdown in the loss. Bianco, a senior, appeared in seven games last season, completing 60 percent of his passes for 188 yards, a touchdown and an interception. If Jones can't go next week against Middle Tennessee, Bianco would presumably be first in line for the start.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Carter Jones - Coach 'very confident' in imminent return Jones (arm) has a shot to play in Week 3 and his head coach Jeff Choate is "very confident" he'll manage to return to action at Middle Tennessee State, per Chris Murray of NevadaSp...

Impact Jones missed Week 2 with an arm injury, but the gunslinger appears to be trending towards playing in Week 3 at Middle Tennessee. In Jones' stead, Luke Duncan and AJ Bianco split reps at gunslinger, with the latter performing slightly better. It's unclear what the Wolfpack's plan at quarterback will be if Jones isn't available once again.

SEPTEMBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Carter Jones - Injury causes DNP for Week 2 Jones (arm) did not play during Nevada's game Saturday against Montana State.

Impact According to Mike Stefansson of Nevada Sports Net, an arm injury is why Jones did not play Week 2. As a result, the Wolf Pack's starting quarterback changed to Luke Duncan.

Impact While Cheers didn't see a ton of volume Saturday, he certainly demonstrated his big-play ability, rushing for a 20-yard score late in the first half before adding a 32-yard touchdown grab in the third quarter. Cheers is expected to be one of Nevada's top receivers this season after he hauled in 44 receptions for 585 yards and five touchdowns last year at FCS Southeast Missouri State.

SEPTEMBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Herschel Turner - Splits workload in opener Turner recorded 11 rushes for 52 yards and a touchdown and gathered in 1 of 2 targets for 20 yards during Saturday's 49-14 victory over Western Kentucky.

Impact Both Turner and Dominic Kelley saw 11 carries in Nevada's opener, though the duo would combine for three rushing scores as the Wolf Pack leaned heavily on their rushing attack in the win. Turner totaled 353 yards on 69 carries last season. It'll be worth monitoring how Nevada's backfield shakes out in Week 2 against Montana State.
