Diore Hubbard - DNP for Week 1 Hubbard (knee) didn't play in Saturday's 35-13 loss to Colorado State in Week 1.

Impact Hubbard was in jeopardy of missing Wyoming's season opener after he was not listed on the team's initial depth chart, and he ultimately did not take the field Saturday. The running back is seemingly still recovering from an ACL tear he suffered last season.

Samuel Harris - Leads backfield in loss Harris compiled 16 rushes for 63 yards and hauled in 1 of 2 targets for two yards during Saturday's 35-13 defeat to Colorado State.

Impact While Wyoming failed to get much going on offense Saturday, Harris did stand out as the Cowboys' lead back, as backups Markell Holman, Nico Hamilton and Jaden Lawrence combined for just seven carries. Harris is coming off an encouraging freshman season where he rushed for 558 yards and a touchdown on 100 attempts.

Tyler Hughes - Struggles in debut Hughes completed 12 of 19 passes for 130 yards and three interceptions during Saturday's 35-13 defeat versus Colorado State. He also had 11 rushes for 52 yards with a touchdown.

Impact While Hughes did show some playmaking ability Saturday, it was a tough FBS debut overall for the senior, who turned the ball over four times in the defeat. Hughes earned the starting job in Laramie after completing 66.2 percent of his passes for 2,330 yards, 20 touchdowns and three interceptions while rushing for another 670 yards with 11 scores last year at William and Mary. Hughes and the Cowboys will look to rebound next week in a favorable home matchup with Northern Colorado.

Diore Hubbard - Not listed on Week 1 depth chart Hubbard (knee) is not listed on Wyoming's depth chart for Saturday's season opener against Colorado State, per 7220sports.

Impact Hubbard's absence from Wyoming's depth chart suggests he may still be recovering from the ACL tear he suffered last season. The team could also be holding him out until conference play, but for now his Week 1 status is seemingly doubtful, considering there was no indication he practiced during fall camp as well. When healthy, he figures to carve out a role in the backfield after leading West Virginia with 335 yards and four touchdowns on 96 carries across eight games last year.

Landon Sims - Partaking in fall camp Sims (knee) is back on the field participating in Wyoming's fall camp, Alex Taylor of Wyoming News reports.

Impact Sims was expected to be back by fall camp, and he did so by returning fully healthy for the start of the Cowboys' training camp. The quarterback recovered quickly, beating his injury timeline by a significant margin, and it might be because of his familiarity with knee injuries and the recovery process since he has torn his ACL three times now in his collegiate career. Sims is currently competing against transfer Tyler Hughes and returnee Mason Drube for Wyoming's starting quarterback job.
