Chase Hendricks - Zero catches in blowout win Hendricks recorded zero receptions (on three targets) for zero yards during Tuesday's 42-14 win against Massachusetts.

Impact Hendricks logged his first game of the season without a catch versus the Minutemen. The low-volume performance can likely be attributed to the Bobcats getting an early need and not needing to pass the ball much. Nonetheless, the WR1 has seen a dip as of late, recording just five catches for 53 yards in his last three outings. He'll look to reestablish his stake in the offense next Friday at Buffalo.

Duncan Brune - Punches in two TDs in win Brune logged 14 rushes for 84 yards and two touchdowns during Tuesday's 42-14 victory against Massachusetts.

Impact Brune saw an increase in usage due to the nature of the blowout, and he capitalized on his opportunities. The supplementary running back logged his third game of the season with two or more touchdowns, and he did so with fewer carries than in the other two showings. He'll look to stay involved next week as the Bobcats travel to Buffalo.

Sieh Bangura - Season-best performance in blowout Bangura posted 27 carries for 196 yards and two touchdowns and hauled in 1 of 2 targets for negative two yards during Tuesday's 42-14 victory against Massachusetts.

Impact Bangura delivered a season-best performance in the win over the Minutemen, nearly totaling 200 rushing yards and punching in two rushing touchdowns. The starting running back has now recorded 100 attempts for 642 yards and nine touchdowns in his last five outings. He'll head into next Friday at Buffalo with a full head of steam, and he'll look to break his career-best touchdown total of 13 on the ground.

Parker Navarro - Two rushing TDs in blowout Navarro was 3-for-8 passing for 28 yards during Tuesday's 42-14 win against Massachusetts. He also had 14 rushes for 81 yards with two touchdowns.

Impact While Navarro's passing stats from the matchup appear abysmal, he didn't need to do much in the air to deliver the Bobcats a win. The deal-threat quarterback instead took his efforts to the ground, where he punched in two touchdowns for the second time this season. He hasn't been able to deliver as a rusher as well as he did last season, but the redshirt senior has still led Ohio to a 5-2 MAC record. Navarro will look to keep his squad in the win column next Friday at Buffalo.

Grant Jordan - Plays bulk of game in blowout loss Jordan completed 10 of 21 passes for 56 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Tuesday's 42-14 defeat versus Ohio. He also had eight rushes for 17 yards.

Impact Jordan played during the second quarter against the Bobcats, and he was under center until the end of the game. The redshirt senior quarterback still wasn't great with his volume, but he did dish out his first passing touchdown of the season. While Jordan looks like the frontrunner at QB, it's unknown how many UMass quarterbacks will be utilized next week versus Bowling Green.

Brandon Rose - Gets utilized second in loss Rose was 5-for-6 passing for 34 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Tuesday's 42-14 loss versus Ohio. He also had five rushes for negative one yard.

Impact Rose came in halfway through the first drive of the game, and he stayed in until an interception towards the end of the second quarter. The redshirt junior quarterback has now seen playing time in back-to-back games, completing 16 of 26 passes for 135 yards, one touchdown and one interception. He could be utilized once again next week versus Bowling Green.

NOVEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

AJ Hairston - Starts game, doesn't play again Hairston was 0-for-1 passing for zero yards and logged one rush for 19 yards during Tuesday's 42-14 defeat versus Ohio.

Impact Hairston was under center for the opening snaps of the eventual blowout loss, but he didn't see the field again after being sidelined midway through the first drive. While the redshirt freshman quarterback could be used in a three-man attack next week against Bowling Green, he remains behind Grant Jordan and Brandon Rose on the pecking order.
