Tobias Merriweather - Questionable to play Saturday Merriweather (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game against Cincinnati.
Impact The star wideout didn't play against Colorado in Week 9, but there might be a chance that he might suit up in this Week 10 contest. Having him back would represent a boost in terms of depth for the Utes, but it's worth noting that the wideout hasn't exactly been productive this season. Merriweather has eight catches for 130 yards on 25 targets so far.

Devon Dampier - Expected to start in Week 10 Dampier (ankle) is expected to start against Cincinnati on Saturday, Matt Zenitz of CBSSports.com reports.
Impact Dampier missed the Week 9 matchup against Colorado due to an ankle injury, and while he was expected to need more time to recover, it seems the signal-caller will be ready to return under center this upcoming weekend. Dampier has completed 68.7 percent of his throws this season for 1,375 yards while posting a 13:4 TD:INT.

Devon Dampier - Requires more time to recover Dampier (ankle) is feeling better each day but will take more time to assess his health and progression, Joe Coles of Deseret News reports.
Impact At 100 percent, Dampier is Utah's starting quarterback, Josh Furlong of KSL News Salt Lake City reports. So, the question becomes whether or not Dampier can fully recover before Utah's next game, currently scheduled for Saturday against Cincinnati. Dampier's last three games saw him log over 800 yards of offense, a 6-2 TD-INT ratio and 10 total touchdowns.

Dallen Bentley - Six targets against Colorado Bentley posted two catches (on six targets) for 34 yards during Saturday's 53-7 victory over Colorado.
Impact Bentley has at least five targets in six of eight games this year. His targets came from a new quarterback against Colorado as freshman Byrd Ficklin made the start for an injured Dvon Dampier. Dampier was available in an emergency situation, however, that was not needed as Utah dominated from start to finish. Dampier will likely be back against Cincinnati next week and Bentley will be one of his preferred targets.

JJ Buchanan - Hauls in third TD this season Buchanan logged two catches (on three targets) for 35 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 53-7 victory versus Colorado.
Impact Buchanan nabbed his third touchdown of the season, this time coming from freshman QB Byrd Ficklin. Ficklin made the spot start for an injured Devon Dampier. Dampier was available in an emergency situation, however, that was not needed as the Utes dominated from start to finish. Utah will host a good Cincinnati team next week.
OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE
Ryan Davis - Seven targets in lopsided win Davis tallied two catches (on seven targets) for 36 yards during Saturday's 53-7 win against Colorado.
Impact Davis recorded at least seven targets for the sixth time this season in eight games. These opportunities came from freshman QB Byrd Ficklin who made the spot start for an injured Devon Dampier. Dampier was available in an emergency situation, however, that was not needed as Utah dominated from start to finish. The game script did not play in favor of the passing game and Davis will likely have a bigger impact when the Utes host Cincinnati next week.
OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE
Larry Simmons - TD in back-to-back games Simmons had two catches (on two targets) for 39 yards and a touchdown during Saturday's 53-7 victory over Colorado.
Impact Simmons recorded a touchdown in back-to-back games for the first time this season. This touchdown came from freshman QB Byrd Ficklin who made the spot start for an injured Devon Dampier. Dampier was available in an emergency situation and is expected back for the upcoming game with Cincinnati. Simmons has yet to record more than two catches in any single game this year.
OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE
NaQuari Rogers - Adds seventh TD in 2025 Rogers logged eight carries for 25 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 53-7 victory against Colorado.
Impact Rogers added his seventh touchdown of the 2025 season. While he's been opportunistic in the red zone, it's been Wayshawn Parker who has been more efficient on a carry-by-carry basis. Parker was downright dominate against Colorado with 10 carries for 145 yards and a touchdown. Look for both Parker and Rogers to continue to get carries out of the backfield with Parker having more upside as a homerun threat. Utah will play Cincinnati next week.
OCTOBER 26 • ROTOWIRE
Nate Johnson - Adds rushing score Johnson rushed for 58 yards and a touchdown on two carries during Saturday's 53-7 win versus Colorado.
Impact Johnson recorded a rushing attempt for the fourth time this season and now has as least one rushing touchdown in each of the last four years. The converted quarterback also had a rushing score at Vanderbilt in 2024. Utah will play Cincinnati next week.
