Dominic Richardson - Totals 48 yards on the ground Richardson totaled 14 rushes for 48 yards and gathered in two of three targets for 20 yards during Saturday's 45-7 defeat to Memphis.
Impact Richardson has struggled to break out the last two weeks, following his big game against Oklahoma State. In a Tulsa offense that has a struggling passing attack, Richardson needs to be great, and he will continue to get a heavy load every week.
OCTOBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kirk Francis - Throws three picks in loss Francis was 20 of 34 passing for 175 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions during Saturday's 45-7 loss to Memphis.
Impact Francis didn't bring his best stuff this week in what was his first game since Week 2. The sophomore struggled to find a rhythm, throwing a career-high three interceptions.
OCTOBER 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Braylin Presley - Totals nine yards Saturday Presley (undisclosed) carried the ball four times for eight and caught three passes for one yard during Saturday's loss versus Memphis.
Impact Presley managed to play Saturday after having been listed as questionable heading into the game. He will look to be more productive carrying the ball next week versus East Carolina.

Micah Tease - Out vs. Memphis Tease (undisclosed) won't be available against Memphis on Saturday night.
Impact Tease will miss his second straight game. The receiver, who has eight grabs for 135 yards this season, will get his next chance to play on Oct. 16 against ECU. Jacob Emmers and Zion Steptoe should see more targets in his absence.
OCTOBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Braylin Presley - Questionable versus Memphis Presley (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's matchup versus Memphis.
Impact Presley has played in every game for Tulsa this season, so it's currently unclear when he picked up this injury. If he ends up being unable to play, Ajay Allen should be in line for increased playing time.
OCTOBER 4, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Mekhi Miller - Out once again Miller (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game at Memphis.
Impact Miller will miss a second straight game, so Tulsa will be down a key figure in the passing game. He'll aim to use the bye week to recover, and his next chance to play will come against East Carolina on Thursday, Oct. 16. With Miller out, expect Jacob Emmers, Zion Steptoe and Josh Smith to see more looks at wideout.

Impact Lucas will miss his first game of the season as he deals with an undisclosed injury. He has three catches for 29 yards through four games this season which isn't much, but he's played a good amount of snaps so the team will miss him regardless.

Impact Slaba will remain sidelined during Saturday's game against Tulsa. The 5-foot-11 redshirt junior kicker has yet to appear in a game this season, and he is expected to operate behind Seth Morgan when healthy.
