2 TCU players to miss opener
TCU will be missing two defensive players when it travels to Minnesota for its season opener on Thursday night.
Horned Frogs coach Gary Patterson did not release the names of the two players, but defensive end James McFarland and cornerback DeShawn Raymond were not included on the depth chart this week.
Patterson did not indicate the reason for the two players sitting out the opener.
Asked about when the identities of the absent players will be released, Patterson said, “You’ll find out when we get to game time.”
McFarland led TCU in sacks last year with seven and was the defensive MVP in the Peach Bowl victory over Ole Miss. He missed practice time during the spring because of a foot injury.
Other TCU defensive players nursing injuries going into the opener are cornerback Torrance Mosley, defensive tackle Davion Pierson, defensive end Mike Tuaua and and linebacker Montrel Wilson.
