UCLA Football Injury Report: Bruins Receiver Spotted With Arm Wrap In Practice
The UCLA Bruins' season came crashing down on Saturday when they were dominated by the Arizona Wildcats, 27-10.
The Bruins weren't able to get anything going offensively, mustering just 271 total yards of offense.
The Bruins had to use three different quarterbacks throughout the game, and none of them were all that impressive. They now sit at 6-3 on the year, and don't have much to play for aside from beating their rival USC and winning whatever mid-tier bowl game they're placed in.
The Bruins were missing one of their receivers this weekend, as Kyle Ford was unable to play with an elbow injury.
It was the first game he missed all year, and he's looking to get back in time for Saturday's game against the lowly Arizona State Sun Devils. Here's the latest update on Ford, per the Los Angeles Times.
“Wide receiver Kyle Ford, who did not play against Arizona, returned to practice with a wrap on his right arm. Ford landed awkwardly on his elbow during a game earlier this season but had not sat out any games until last weekend.”
It's a good sign that Ford was able to return to practice, but it's unclear how severe the injury is.
While Ford would love to return as soon as possible for this Saturday's game, you know he has next Saturday's game circled on his calendar against UCLA's biggest rival and his former team, the USC Trojans.
Ford spent the 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 seasons with the Trojans, before transferring to UCLA this year.
The former 4-star recruit has failed to live up to the hype, but he'd love to put on a show against his former team on Nov. 18.
We'll continue to provide updates on Ford, but it's a great sign that he was able to get back on the practice field this week.
