Available vs. California Easter (undisclosed) is not on the injury report for Friday's game against California.
Impact Easter is no longer on the injury report after being out for the matchup against Clemson before the bye week. That said, even if Easter is available, he shouldn't have a big role on offense since he's buried on the depth chart. He's yet to log counting stats for UNC in 2025.

Not listed on injury report Culliver (undisclosed) is not on the injury report for Friday's game against California.
Impact Culliver was limited to nine snaps against Clemson, but the fact that he isn't on the injury report for this Week 8 matchup suggests that he should be ready to roll Friday. Culliver has five catches (on nine targets) for 104 yards and a touchdown in four appearances in 2025.

Listed out vs. Cal Bartolomeo (undisclosed) is out for Friday's game at California.
Impact Bartolomeo is a depth option in the kicking department. His absence won't cause a big impact in fantasy.
OCTOBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Not on injury report Lopez (leg) is not on the injury report and should be available to face California on Friday.
Impact Lopez didn't play against Clemson before the bye week, but the star signal-caller used the rest to recover and should return under center to face the Golden Bears on Saturday. That means Max Johnson would return to his regular backup role. Lopez has completed 62.7 percent of his passes for 430 yards in his four starts this season while sporting a 3:3 TD:INT.
OCTOBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Out against Cal Halsey (undisclosed) is out for Friday's game against California.
Impact Halsey is buried on the depth chart, so he's not expected to play a significant role on offense even if he's available. It's unclear when he'll be able to suit up again.
