OCTOBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Judah Ezinwa - Unavailable Wednesday night Ezinwa (undisclosed) isn't available for the Miners against Sam Houston on Wednesday.
Impact Ezinwa missed Week 5 against Louisiana Tech but returned for Week 7 after a bye to log two catches for 12 yards. Now, the tight end will miss his second game in three outings. Alex Szczesniak should assume the top tight end role for the Miners.

Judah Ezinwa - Plays in Week 7 Ezinwa (undisclosed) recorded two catches for 12 yards in the Week 7 matchup against Liberty.
Impact Ezinwa was initially listed as out for the Week 7 matchup against Liberty, but he ended up playing and catching the two targets that went his way. That puts him in a good position to be available for the Week 8 contest against Sam Houston on Wednesday, Oct. 15.
OCTOBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kam Thomas - Out for season Thomas (knee) will miss the rest of the 2025 season, according to Bret Bloomquist of the El Paso Times.
Impact Thomas hasn't played since the Miners' opener, and now it's been confirmed he won't return for the rest of the campaign. Thomas ends the campaign with 16 carries for 36 yards and four catches for 26 receiving yards. Expect Hahsaun Wilson to continue as the lead back for UTEP.

UTEP vs. Sam Houston Prediction, Odds, Picks - October 15, 2025
Liberty pounces on UTEP early, holds on to snap four-game losing skid Liberty's defense and special teams turned in a strong outing to get the Flames in the win column in Conference USA play against UTEP.
OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROANOKE.COM
Kenny Odom - Tallies 53 yards Odom caught three passes for 53 yards against Liberty on Wednesday.
Impact Odom is clearly the lead receiver for the Miners, but the quarterback play is so bad down in El Paso that he can't really get any juice on the field. He has 12 catches over his last three games, but for 79 yards and zero touchdowns.
OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Malachi Nelson - Comes off bench in loss Nelson was 4-for-10 passing for 21 yards during Wednesday's 19-8 defeat against Liberty.
Impact Nelson was demoted to the backup role as fellow signal caller Skyler Locklear earned starting reps for the Miners against Liberty on Wednesday. Nelson didn't look great in his appearances against the Flames, completing just 40 percent of his passes for 21 total yards, though Locklear didn't exactly light the world on fire in the passing game either (90 yards, two interceptions). Nelson will hope to make the most of his opportunities to earn back the starting gig, starting with a matchup against Sam Houston State next Wednesday.
OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Skyler Locklear - Struggles in first start Locklear was 9-for-17 passing for 90 yards and two interceptions during Wednesday's 19-8 loss to Liberty. He also had eight rushes for 58 yards with one touchdown.
Impact Though Locklear made his first start of the season against Liberty on Wednesday, the game turned out to be one he will likely want to forget. The 5-foot-11 quarterback struggled to get things going against the Flames, totaling just 90 yards through the air while throwing a pair on interceptions without a touchdown. He did manage to find the end zone on the ground, however, crossing the goal line on a 13-yard scamper in the fourth quarter to bring UTEP to within 11. Locklear looks set to continue to compete with fellow signal caller Malachi Nelson for the starting job, with his next opportunity coming against Sam Houston State next Wednesday.
OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Judah Ezinwa - Sidelined Wednesday night Ezinwa (undisclosed) won't be available against Liberty on Wednesday night.
Impact The tight end will now miss his second straight game. Ezinwa was just starting to get involved in this Miners' offense, reeling in a combined two catches for 64 yards in his last two games.

AP Player of the Week: Mississippi QB Trinidad Chambliss continued his roll in win over LSU

Mississippi quarterback Trinidad Chambliss is The Associated Press national college football player of the week
SEPTEMBER 29, 2025 • Associated Press
Wondame Davis Jr. - Stays in the game plan Davis caught two passes for 58 yards and a touchdown against La Tech on Saturday.
Impact Last week, Davis came out of nowhere, catching six passes for 119 yards and two touchdowns after previously having one target all season. Clearly, he earned some trust, and he also managed to score another touchdown.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kenny Odom - Struggles continue Odom caught four passes for 11 yards against La Tech on Saturday.
Impact Odom was targeted nine times, which makes this even bleaker. he started the season hot, and last season he had 741 yards and eight touchdowns. The fact Malachi Nelson is likely done at quarterback should benefit Odom, though.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Ashten Emory - Rushes for 50 yards Emory ran 11 times for 50 yards and had one catch for 10 yards against La Tech on Saturday.
Impact The Miners' coaching staff must have seen the writing on the wall, as they moved Kam Thomas from receiver to running back to start the season. Thomas ran well in the opener, and then immediately suffered a serious knee injury. UTEP has been spinning its wheels since, with Emory being one of a few guys getting carries.
SEPTEMBER 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Skyler Locklear - Throws TD, INT in relief Locklear went 4-for-6 for 74 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against La Tech on Saturday.
Impact UTEP's staff finally had enough for Malachi Nelson, who threw four picks in this game. The Miners have a bye coming up, but unless people are trying to get themselves fired Locklear will be the starter in Week 7.

Malachi Nelson - Finally blows it for good Nelson went 18-for-38 for 73 yards and four interceptions against La Tech on Saturday.
Impact Nelson is going to go down as one of the all-time failed recruiting prospects. Were he not once a five-star recruit, the Miners likely wouldn't have let him be the starter for five games. Surely, that is over now, and indeed Skyler Locklear did step in during this one.
