Redshirt junior running back Charles Sims didn’t practice with the team on Monday due to a leg injury during the UTEP game on Saturday. Head coach Tony Levine said Sims is probable for the game this week against ECU.
“He didn’t practice tonight. We’ll be back at it tomorrow in full pads and re-evaluate him then,” Levine said.
Sims kept playing through his injury during the game, but the training staff made the decision to pull him later in the second half.
He ran for 119 yards and had three touchdowns in the win against UTEP. After practice, he said his leg was fine.
“I’m good; just a little sore. I’ll be good for tomorrow,” Sims said.
