Sam Byram - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Dealing with back injury Byram is dealing with a back injury and is uncertain to play Sunday at Derby County in the FA Cup, Daniel Farke told media Thursday.

Impact Byram recently went the full 90 in the loss against Brentford, but he remains the backup to Max Aarons at right-back. While he's seen more time in the second half of the season, he still has just two starts and isn't expected to see many more the rest of the way.
