CJ Daniels’ Absence Sparks Chaos in Dallas
The Miami Hurricanes will be missing their No. 2 wide receiver, CJ Daniels, when they travel to face the SMU Mustangs in ACC play. Leading the team in receptions and touchdowns, Daniels’ game-time scratch leaves Tony Johnson, Joshisa Trader and other role players with a sudden opportunity. Several other Miami starters – including Hayden Lowe and Dylan Reiman – are also sidelined, while Bobby Washington and Mykah Newton are listed as questionable. After a 42-7 victory over Stanford, Miami hopes to maintain momentum despite a depleted lineup, and SMU looks to capitalize on home-field advantage in Dallas.
In a move reminiscent of a sitcom where the star actor trips over the welcome mat, Miami’s coaching staff has decided to play “Guess Who’s Out?” instead of football. Without CJ Daniels, the Canes might as well hand the playbook to the waterboys and let SMU’s offense binge-watch the highlights. Thankfully, backup receivers were born for this exact moment – like stunt drivers waiting for the lead car to crash. Expect an avalanche of “surprise hero” headlines if one of them catches more than a paper towel. And if SMU chars the Canes’ depleted defense, at least someone will break the internet with memes about Miami’s injury bug.
