Wayshawn Parker gets positive update after injury scare during Utah/BYU game.

BYU · Utah

But Utes fans received one scare involving star running back Wayshawn Parker. "He's dealing with a bruise, and is expected to play on Saturday at No. 22 Arizona," Thamel posted on the social media website X, formerly Twitter.

"He was limited against BYU after appearing to injure himself on the opening drive, as he carried the ball only twice in the first half." Watch sports LIVE with fuboTV (free trial)

He walked in averaging an astonishing 6.6 yards per carry. Parker also brought nine touchdowns in tow to the Holy War showdown.

Turns out Utah didn't need to rely heavily on Parker. Not with dual-threat quarterback Devon Dampier becoming a do-everything type.
