Last Saturday, during the third quarter of the No. 12 Ole Miss Rebels ' 34-27 loss to the No. 11 Texas Longhorns , Rebels star running back Kewan Lacy was forced to leave the game with an injury.
Yesterday, Ole Miss head coach Pete Golding announced Lacy would miss the Auburn game with a dislocated shoulder . Lacy has struggled with injuries throughout the season, even having to miss the Florida game with a different shoulder injury.
Makhi Frazier has been the primary backup to Lacy and has taken most of the carries while Lacy's dealing with his injuries. In Frazier's 51 carries, he's rushed for 301 yards and no touchdowns.
Although Frazier is still expected to get a good amount of carries in Lacy's absence, the Rebels have another running back in Shekai Mills-Knight who's been knocking on the door for more opportunities.
