For the first time all year, there's good news for Duke on the injury front.
Kyler Brown, Jordon Byas and Lucas Patrick have all been upgraded from their "out" status last week. Niether Patrick nor Byas has played this season, and Brown hasn't played since week one against FIU.
Cutcliffe also said that Kelby Brown, for the first time this year, has seen limited work at practice.
Freshman safety Corbin McCarthy, who made an appearance at Cutcliffe's Tuesday radio show, will seek a medical redshirt after undergoing surgery to fix a labral tear in his left shoulder. McCarthy saw action in Duke's first two games, recording four total tackles.
Check out tomorrow's paper for a more in-depth story on how Duke has coped with the numerous injuries so far this year.
