JACKSON, Mississippi -- Jackson State is tapping deeper into its quarterback pool.Evan Ingram, a reliable backup to LaMontiez Ivy, has sat out the last three practices due to a right knee injury he suffered during Saturday’s scrimmage.
“His role is very important, he’s got the next, most experience on this football team,” coach Harold Jackson said. “We’re depending on him just as much as we are depending on the next guy in line. The other guys behind him have to be able to know what’s going on too because they could be one play away from getting into the ball game.”
The Tigers are optimistic Ingram won’t be out for long. In the meantime, they’ll have to look deeper into Plan C, which consists of young talents in Benjamin Thomas and Brent Lyles.
Neither has played a collegiate game, but that’s not what offensive coordinator Timmy Chang is looking at in the upcoming practices.
