Running back McFarlane, cornerbacks Morgan, Reddish will play in Spring Game

Key Syracuse players on both sides of the ball have returned to practice and will be available for the Spring Game on Saturday.

Rising junior running back Devante McFarlane participated in practice on Tuesday and will play Saturday, running backs coach DeAndre Smith said. McFarlane stood on the sideline in a sweatshirt during the Orange’s open practice last Tuesday with an undisclosed injury.

Cornerbacks Wayne Morgan (right knee) and Brandon Reddish (lower body) are also good to go on Saturday, defensive coordinator Chuck Bullough said.

Bullough said there are no other major injuries, though SU head coach Scott Shafer said that there are a couple players injured in the spring who will not compete.

Said Shafer: “I’m going to wait until the doctors tell me officially that they can’t play. If they don’t practice Thursday, I’ll probably back off even though they may play if it was a gameday situation.”
