Miami Hurricanes name their starting QB for Pittsburgh — and say Tate Martell will be out
University of Miami redshirt sophomore quarterback N’Kosi Perry has a separated left, nonthrowing shoulder, but he nonetheless gives the Hurricanes “the best chance to win” in Saturday’s road game against the Pittsburgh Panthers, coach Manny Diaz announced Friday in a press release naming him the starter for this week.
Redshirt freshman quarterback Jarren Williams, who started the first five games of the season but injured his throwing shoulder a few weeks ago, will be on the sideline, but Diaz said Wednesday he will be ready to go in if needed.
“Based on the strength of his preparation throughout this week we feel that N’Kosi gives us the best chance to win at Pittsburgh,” Diaz said in a statement.
