SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Utah quarterback Jordan Wynn has a sprained thumb on his throwing hand and is listed as day to day as the 20th-ranked Utes prepare for Saturday’s game against UNLV.
Wynn injured his right thumb in the Utes’ 27-24 overtime win over Pittsburgh in the season opener Thursday. He said Tuesday that he may not know until Saturday morning whether he will be able to play that afternoon against the Rebels.
Wynn was able to stay in the game against Pittsburgh even with the injury. He says it happened in the first or second series when he landed awkwardly on his hand.
Wynn passed for 283 yards and three touchdowns with one interception on an underthrown pass in the end zone.
