Ja'Kyrian Turner - Listed as questionable for Week 8 Turner (undisclosed) holds a questionable designation for Saturday's clash with Miami, per the ACC availability report.

How Backup QBs Are Impacting The Success Or Demise Of College Football Teams

Censere Lee - Nearly invisible against Boston College Lee reeled in their only target for eight yards during Saturday's 27-21 defeat against Boston College.

Impact Lee has disappeared since exploding for three touchdowns against Bucknell on Sept. 26. In his past three games, he has just seven receptions for 49 yards, as he has had difficulty adjusting to Holden Geriner and Corey Dailey under center since Mason Heintschel (ACL) went down for the season.

Carson Kent - Secures two catches at BC Kent notched two receptions (on five targets) for 20 yards during Saturday's 27-21 defeat to Boston College.

Impact Kent has multiple receptions in four of the past five games. He hasn't found the end zone since he had six grabs for 57 yards and a TD against Bucknell on Sept. 26. He has had a few bright spots this season, but more often than not his production is rather limited.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Cataurus Hicks - Hits triple digits with touchdown Hicks had five receptions (on nine targets) for 135 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 27-21 loss versus Boston College.

Impact Hicks has had to adjust to three different quarterbacks in the past three games. Pitt lost QB Mason Heintschel (ACL) for the season, so Holden Geriner started last time out against North Carolina. Now, Hicks was working with freshman Corey Dailey, and the two had quite the rapport. They'll look to keep up the good work together at Miami on Saturday.

La'Vell Wright - Totals 15 carries against BC Wright posted 15 rushes for 52 yards during Saturday's 27-21 loss versus Boston College.

Impact Wright and Damon Ferguson Jr. split the carries, with the latter far more productive with 7.0 yards per carry to just 3.5 yards per carry for Wright. Wright will likely still get his chance at touches, but his fantasy ceiling is rather limited as long as Ferguson is healthy and productive.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Damon Ferguson Jr. - Hits triple digits in road loss Ferguson posted 17 carries for 119 yards and hauled in 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 27-21 defeat against Boston College.

Impact Ferguson averaged 7.0 yards per rushing attempt, as he single-handedly took the team on his back trying to will it to a win. The passing game just wasn't there, though. And, Ferguson also had a costly lost fumble in the game. He split the backfield touches with La'Vell Wright, but he was far more productive. Ferguson should lead the backfield in Miami on Saturday.

2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Corey Dailey - Slightly erratic against Boston College Dailey was 11-for-25 passing for 193 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 27-21 defeat against Boston College.

Impact The freshman replaced Holden Geriner under center, as Pitt had a third different quarterback starting for the third straight game. It lost Mason Heintschel to a torn ACL two weeks ago, so Geriner started and lost to North Carolina. Head coach Pat Narduzzi tabbed the freshman Dailey for the start against BC, but he was very erratic, and mistake-prone. We'll see who is under center in Miami next time out, as Pitt looks to pull out of its nosedive.

Holden Geriner - Not starting versus Boston College Geriner is not starting Saturday at Boston College, Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Geriner struggled in last week's loss to North Carolina, throwing two interceptions and zero touchdowns. He split first team reps with Corey Dailey in practice during the week, and now the true freshman will make his career first start over Geriner. Geriner is set to be the backup quarterback, but still could see some action if Dailey struggles.

Corey Dailey - Starting Saturday Dailey will start at quarterback for Saturday's game at Boston College, Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Dailey split first team reps during the week and will now officially replace Holden Geriner who struggled last week versus UNC. Dailey, a true freshman, will make his first collegiate start after only appearing in one game this season where he completed three of five passes for 57 yards and a touchdown versus Bucknell.

Ja'Kyrian Turner - Won't play Saturday Turner (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's game versus Boston College, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Turner logged just five carries last week, and while he was doubtful to play, it has now been confirmed that he won't suit up this weekend. That means Damon Ferguson should see most of the carries against Boston College, with La'Vell Wright operating as his backup. Turner's next chance to play will come against Miami in a Week 8 matchup.

Corey Dailey - Splitting QB1 reps Dailey has been splitting first-team reps at quarterback ahead of Saturday's game at Boston College, Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Dailey saw his first college action this season, but he could now already be in line for a starting role if he gets the nod over Holden Geriner. Geriner started in the Panthers' most recent game against UNC after QB1 Mason Heintschel tearing his ACL, and a poor performance has now ignited a quarterback battle. The following days should determined which way Pitt's staff will lean in a decision.

Holden Geriner - Splitting first-team reps Geriner has been splitting first-team reps at quarterback ahead of Saturday's game at Boston College, Christopher Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Geriner was mistake-prone in his first start of the year against UNC, so it now appears he'll have to battle it out with Corey Dailey for the true QB1 role for the rest of the year. The Panthers could also roll with a two-quarterback look at least this Saturday, but Geriner does have more experience which could bode well for him in the final decision.

Elijah Lagg - Out for Week 7 Lagg (undisclosed) is listed as out prior to Saturday's matchup against Boston College.

Impact Lagg will not suit up for his third consecutive game on Saturday against the Eagles due to an undisclosed injury. The tight end has seven catches for 76 yards and one touchdown this season. The Arkansas native will look to return next week against Miami (FL).

Ja'Kyrian Turner - Status in question for Saturday Turner (undisclosed) is listed as questionable prior to Saturday's matchup against Boston College.

Impact After logging just five carries last week, Turner may miss Saturday's matchup with the Eagles. The running back has already missed three games this season due to an undisclosed injury. In three games, the Florida native has 30 carries for 131 yards and one touchdown, along with 10 catches for 104 yards and one touchdown.
